Donside Hydro
Aberdeen City
In Person
Visit this multi-award winning Community Hydro scheme. Meet the volunteer Directors who will conduct the tours and tell you all about the scheme. See first-hand the Archimedes Screw, the widest in the UK when it was installed in 2016. Have a look around the turbine house, and find out how electricity is generated.
Take a walk along the edge of the lade in an area that is steeped in industrial history, where mills have been operating for centuries and which now harnesses the power of the river to produce clean, green renewable energy.
Guided tours will be held from 13:00hrs to 15:00hrs and will last around 30 minutes.
