 The turbine will be the closest to London |
One of the UK's tallest wind turbines is to be built to provide power for the London 2012 Olympics. Plans for the 393ft (120m) structure, which will be the turbine nearest to London, will be unveiled by the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA).
The turbine will be located at Eton Manor in the north end of the Olympic site in east London.
It will power street lighting and housing and will continue to produce energy for about 20 years.
The ODA said the turbine would be a visible symbol to its commitment to staging the most sustainable Olympic Games ever.
