LEGO bricks are often considered toys for little kids, but they have become popular even among adults of late. With the newly completed wind turbine by the LEGO company, which is entirely made of LEGO bricks, this trend is only going to continue. What’s more, the company also achieved 100 percent renewable energy dependence three years ahead of schedule.
The LEGO company was actually looking to rely completely on renewable energy sources three years from now, but it seems the popular brand was quite a bit more enthusiastic than even it anticipated. Now considered the largest wind turbine in the world, the machine made of actual LEGO bricks might just set a Guinness World Records precedent, Futurism reports.
Building the wind turbine cost the company DKK 6 billion, which roughly converts to about $904 million. One of the biggest reasons why the company managed to achieve its goal so fast was because of the Burbo Bank Extension wind farm, which opened last month.
In a press release, LEGO CEO Bali Padda announced that the completion of the wind turbine means that all of the company’s energy needs will now rely on clean energy. LEGO has joined an increasingly popular trend among private companies, which have chosen to join the renewable bandwagon and abandoning fossil fuel.
“We work to leave a positive impact on the planet and I am truly excited about the inauguration of the Burbo Bank Extension wind farm,” Padda said. “This development means we have now reached the 100% renewable energy milestone three years ahead of target. Together with our partners, we intend to continue investing in renewable energy to help create a better future for the builders of tomorrow.”
While the renewable energy industry still has quite a bit of catching up to do to have the same worldwide presence as fossil fuel does, it’s on an undeniable upward track. Most experts agree that it is the future and most nations are already setting their own renewable energy goals.
