Windscape – our interactive museum exhibit
Ready to be blown away? If you want to learn more about offshore wind and how our people convert this to electricity, visit Windscape at Sheringham Museum where wind power comes to life.
Windscape is the recently refurbished Visitor Centre of the Sheringham Shoal and Dudgeon Offshore Wind Farms. Located within the Sheringham Museum, the exhibit allows visitors to connect with the story of wind farms, whilst also learning more about the increasing amount of renewable energy in East Anglia’s energy mix, of which the Sheringham and Shoal and Dudgeon Extension project is a major component. The Visitor Centre first opened in 2011, since when it has welcomed over 150,000 visitors.
Interactive items, films, touchscreens, dress-up area and innovative graphic displays are designed to help people learn about the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy, explaining the importance of offshore wind energy in Norfolk over years gone by through to the 21st century.
Although there is an admission charge to Sheringham Museum, Windscape is free to enter and is open from 10:00am – 4:30pm Monday to Saturday, closed on Sundays. For more information visit www.sheringhammuseum.co.uk
