Gusto creates wind powered park keeper's hut for UK energy giant E.ON

We have created a working autonomous alternative energy park keeper’s hut in a Leicestershire park for energy giant E.ON. The hut has a wind turbine which powers a low voltage system with deep cycle battery back up and enough power to run an energy efficient light, charge a mobile phone plus boil a kettle allowing award winning park keeper, Mick Eaton to make about 4 cups of tea per day - bringing a whole new meaning to the idea of green tea!

We do these kind of projects in order to learn more about particular technologies so that we can transfer the knowledge into our mainstream work. We have also done an autonomous ice cream bike where the freezer is powered by both a wind turbine and a deployable solar panel.
