I thought this might be a story about feeding each of the Glastonbury revellers a can of beans and then collecting the resulting methane, but it appears not…..
Orange is apparently going to use a 7 metre wind turbine to power (recharge) mobile phones during Glastonbury this year! Users will be able to connect their device to a charger point inside a locker, for 45 mins at a time to get all buzzed up with power.
This is a great innovation – but I can’t help think a much more fun use of the turbine would be as a giant rotating catapult for Mobiles of people that won’t turn their phones for the performances – last thing you need at a quite lull in a song is an someone’s “cool” ringtone….!
