Photographer’s Note

This is a photo of the wind farm at Paul da Serra. This plateau to the West of the island is approximately 1400m above sea level and provides ideal conditions for electricity generation.

The current capacity saves the importation of 13,700 tons of fuel to Madeira, and eliminates the emission 43,000 of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Renewable resources could provide as much as 30% of Madeira's electricity production by 2016/17
