Copenhagen's Famous Tivoli Amusement Park Will Be Wind-Powered
It is fitting that the city hosting important climate talks would move towards powering one its most famous attractions with wind power. Tivoli Amusement Park has been open since 1843, and now an offshore wind turbine will power the park. Eco Friend reports:
The park has already made strong efforts at recycling and energy efficiency, and is now looking for ways to go carbon neutral.
Tivoli Amusement Park has partnered with Danish Oil and Natural Gas, and the partnership has resulted in an agreement to install an extra wind turbine off Copenhagen's coast. The turbine is undergoing final tests now, and when installed next year, it will be able to provide all the electricity the park needs.
