How a visit works

Visits are arranged through schools, colleges, companies and other institutions. Here is the whole process, start to finish.

  1. 1

    Choose a site

    Browse the dams, geothermal fields and wind farms open to visitors, and check which days each one receives groups.

  2. 2

    Pick a date

    Bookings open 14 days ahead and close 90 days out. Tours run on weekdays, excluding public holidays.

  3. 3

    Submit your request letter

    Groups book through an institution. Upload a letter on official letterhead, signed and stamped — it is checked automatically as you upload.

  4. 4

    Wait for approval

    A regional coordinator reviews the request and confirms your slot by email. Your date is held while it is being reviewed.

  5. 5
