In the quest to go green, Scotland is way ahead of the rest of the UK, with nearly all electricity produced by wind power.
In October, 98 percent of Scotland’s electricity was produced by wind turbines, with the devolved government on track to produce all of its electricity from renewable sources by 2020.
One area of Scotland which is at the forefront of renewable energy is Orkney, where they generate more electricity from wind turbines than they can use, and also have the world’s leading testing facility for emerging wave and tidal power systems.
