The turbine's base extends 10 metres into the underground bedrock and its foundation is made of solid steel.

A windmill is a machine that uses the wind to turn a wheel of adjustable vanes, slats or sails. As the wheel turns, it turns a shaft, wheels, and gears that power machinery.

Today we also have windmills, called "wind turbines," that generate electricity.
