Green Innovations showcases the exciting new technologies that can revolutionise the way we live. The focus is on services and products that help reduce our impact on the environment. The Green Innovations arena is a world of lifestyle discovery during the day and musical discovery by night. We will hold workshops, talks and debates on environmental solutions for the modern world and have stalls promoting innovative green businesses. On the outdoor bandstand we will be hosting live music mostly of an acoustic nature, an eclectic mix of bands and DJs for your audible delight. Tribal Vibrations will once again lovingly craft the amazing and wide ranging sounds that will delight and bring much upbeat wide abandon to all who dare venture into the green innovations area. Join us for a musical journey from upbeat organic folk music to ambient soundscapes and ambient electronica. The Green Innovations area will come alive at night with an interactive outside solar cinema provided by our resident Media collective, Opticfibre. Opticfibre are planning new and expanded visual nutrition to accompany our space as the daylight hours fade, and the green innovations area turns into a night time wonderland. We have some amazing films and animations to show you that will inspire and excite, providing a positive alternative vision for the future. The cutting edge LED lighting and video projection installations will be powered by current solar energy (Solar Power) as opposed to the use of ancient solar energy as used throughout the modern world!

As part of a network dedicated to energy and resource conservation, Zia supply and install new, 'state of the art' equipment, second user and reclaimed system components, specialising in salvage and reconditioning e.g. repaired solar panels, new and used batteries, cables, fans, heatsinks, inverters, lighting, etc. Simo, the incredibly knowledgable brainchild behind Zia is an ex-aerospace engineer with an amazing degree of knowledge on biodiesel, hydro-electrics, free-energy and more! Zia will also be powering our bandstand and Green Innovations Cinema! V3 POWER - Engineering from Scrap V3 Power are a group of engineers working as a cooperative, building renewable energy technologies from recycled and re-used materials. Working in the Green Innovations area, they will be providing drop-in workshops in how to build the following: Wind Turbine The wind turbines we have are built from scratch, incorporating hand carved blades, a permanent magnet alternator and a welded steel frame. Come and have a go at carving the blades from wood, see how it all fits together and get advice on how to build your own wind turbine. Rocket Stove These are wood burning stoves made from old cooking oil drums. The design takes less than an hour to build, costs approximately ?1 in materials, and the finished stove is incredibly efficient, due to a heat-insulating construction which means that almost all the energy in the wood is used to directly heat the cooking pan. Have a go at how to build one, and enjoy a cup of tea from the fruits of your labour! Bike Generator Bike generators use a car alternator and an old bike to produce electricity to charge batteries. Come and see the bike generators we've built, and have a go at pedaling to help power the music! We'll also be building some during the day so you can help out and see how they're built... Solar Cooker These efficient and easy to build designs means you can cook your lunch from the power of the sun. We'll be building cookers using cardboard, foil and a piece of glass – and if it's sunny enough, cooking some food!      If you are a green innovator or have a green business and you would like to take part please contact: paulcarter@greeninnovations.org.uk :: 07971 182824
