Eco-Isle eco-energy progress
Three Island projects are going for green energy. 
This will lower their carbon footprint and their utility bills, thanks to the Council’s Eco-Island initiative.
Yarmouth Harbour Commission headquarters has been fitted with solar panels funded by a government grant. This will help to heat the water at the building, where visiting yachtsmen and women take around 25,000 showers each year.
The Brading Centre has also been fitted with solar panels, which have been connected to the electricity grid. This project was part-funded by the Low-Carbon Buildings programme, with the IW Council.
Shorwell Village Hall has also benefited from a green energy project and is being fitted with a heating system which uses a pump to extract low grade heat from the ground to warm it.
