Education activities

The Isle of Man energy-from-waste facility boasts a visitor and education centre. In 2017, we hosted just under 800 visitors, 70% of whom were under the age of 18.

Primary and secondary schools enjoyed the opportunity to enrich their teaching of curriculum subjects with insights into science, technology and environmental issues.

Tours of the facility were also arranged for scout groups, adult social clubs and Councillors from Douglas Corporation.

Tours can be tailored for educational purposes, business visitors and members of the public, and our friendly experts are happy to answer all your questions.

We hope you’re tempted to visit and look forward to welcoming you soon.

“You and your team gave a good presentation… and then a fascinating tour of the facility.” – Sir Richard Gozney, Lieutenant Governor

“I was left with the impression of a plant run safely, efficiently and cleanly, disposing of waste products in a way that also produces a significant amount of electrical power.” – Neil Hay, former Merchant Navy Engineer Officer
