Wind Turbine Ride

There are theme parks designed for roller coaster junkies, and then there’s Qurrent, the “world’s first sustainable theme park.” In addition to the wind turbine attractions, guests will also be able to ride the world’s tallest spiraling water slide. Going back to the former, there are four turbine rides: a spiraling Beaufort Buster water slide, a Blade Runner turbine blade booster, the Newton Nightmare drop tower (descends 95-meters in 1.5 seconds), and lastly, a Happy Hurricane roller coaster.

“While Qurrent’s planned 8,000-square-meter theme park won’t be the first to be powered by wind, it will be the first to turn wind turbines into amusement park rides. The eco-theme park will also offer more than thrills and novelty. Qurrent envisions the park as a ‘celebration of environmental contribution’ that will showcase Dutch renewable energy and educate the public on sustainable practices,” reports Inhabitat.
