Rampion offshore wind farm Visitor Centre opens in Brighton

Rampion offshore wind farm Visitor Centre has opened on Brighton seafront.

Rampion Visitor Centre is located in six newly-refurbished arches neighbouring Brighton’s West Pier Pillars and facing the Rampion offshore wind farm, 13 kilometres off the Sussex coast.

Through dozens of displays and interactive exhibits, it offers the Sussex community and Brighton’s 11 million annual visitors a free museum, bringing to life the story of human settlement, technological advancement and population growth, alongside climate change, renewable energy and the construction of Rampion.

The Visitor Centre is now open for pre-booked visits of groups from one household at a time, with facilities in place to ensure strict compliance with all requirements in relation to the coronavirus.

“Climate scientists say we have less than a decade to drastically reduce our carbon emissions to stop the devastating effects of global warming. We have brought together historical and scientific information in audio and visual displays to explain the causes, impacts and solutions to climate change, with a real focus on energy. Our attraction also tells the local Rampion story, from early development to the engineering feat of constructing and operating a wind farm 13 kilometres out to sea.”

Chris Tomlinson, Rampion’s development and stakeholder manager.

A huge interactive globe is the centre piece of the Visitor Centre, showing the impact people have had on the planet, visualizing population growth and the recent impact of the greenhouse effect as well as what the future could hold.

Other features include an exciting virtual reality experience taking you out to the wind farm, climbing up and standing on top of a turbine. Interactive games and video kiosks allow visitors to explore the development, construction and operation of Rampion and visitors can also enjoy interactive exhibits showing how energy is made and how wind energy works.

“The Visitor Centre is designed to inform children and adults in a fun and exciting way, so we’ve created a variety of exhibits, to enable visitors to choose what they want to discover in a way that suits them. We look forward to welcoming local residents, students and tourists of all ages, to come and experience Brighton’s newest visitor attraction and discover how every one of us can play our part to reduce carbon emissions.”

Chris Tomlinson.

The Visitor Centre is free to enter and forms part of the £4 million Rampion Community Fund, voluntarily created for the Sussex community.

The Rampion offshore wind farm supplies enough green energy to power the equivalent of almost 350,000 homes2 – around half the homes in Sussex – and reduces CO2 emissions by up to 600,000 tonnes a year. Installation of the 116 turbines was completed in September 2018 when Rampion became the first offshore wind farm off the UK’s south coast.
