Research renewable energy cooperatives or initiatives in your area.

Gusford Primary School, Wednesday, 26 November 2025
30 points 30 pupils Explorer KS2, KS3, KS4, KS5

We went to Suez Waste Management Centre in Blakenheath Suffolk. We learnt about recycling, renewable energy and how the plant turns waste into electricity. We found out about the daily structure of the plant and how it functions. We were also invited to tour around the plant in protective equipment to really understand how the plant works.
