ISLAND OF EIGG, SCOTLAND - 30th OCTOBER 2007: Hinge bolts on the base of the first wind turbine tower are now in place so that the tower can be winched up into the vertical position. Once erected, the four 6KW wind turbines will contribute to Eigg's new electricity system that will provide households on the island with a continuous 24 hour supply for the first time. The power will come from renewable energy provided by wind, hydro and solar. Photo by Mike Goldwater
