About this place

Lamma Winds (南丫風采發電站) is an experimental wind turbine in Tai Ling, Lamma Island, Hong Kong. The site was chosen for its relatively strong average wind and its proximity to the existing power lines linking the Lamma Power Station with Hong Kong Island. It produces on average 100 kW of power.

Lamma Winds is meant to be a demonstration project, and as such one of the few commercial-scale wind turbines in the world that is open to the public. An exhibition centre surrounds the base of the wind turbine, and is open daily from 7 AM to 6 PM, including weekends and holidays. Access to the exhibition center is by foot; the walk from Yung Shue Wan Ferry Pier takes about 40 minutes.
