Tilos Island Leads The Way In Creating Renewable Energy

The island of Tilos in Greece is going green by implementing an environmentally-friendly network of wind and solar power that will charge batteries, creating an energy-storage system. Tilos will test this new system in the next few months.

While Tilos only has 400 people living there year-round, during the summer months the population rises to 4,000, putting a strain on the islands energy resources.

The project has a total cost of 13.7 million euros (11 million euros being supplied by the EU), and if it is successful, this could be used and replicated on all the islands, encouraging the use of renewable energy.
