Star Island is a 35 acre 5 star island resort in North Elruthra, Bahamas. This Island uses Solar shingles, mini wind turbines, and hydro-electric generators to power the entire Resort. Star stands for Sustainable Terrain And Resources. The purpose for this project is to help make the world a greener place, while making a great example for other resorts around the world. They want everyone to see that they too can use the resources around them to help make the world a greener place. The advantages of this project are the Entire Resort is Non-Dependant on traditional electricity and power sources. There is less waste being put into the air and when power goes out due to bad weather and hurricane Star Island will still be up and running. The disadvantages of this project are the solar shingles and roof have to be at a exact angle for them to catch the sun's direct sunlight.Wind is not blowing all the time so if there is no wind there is no power. To have Hydroelectric power you need a large amount of water supply to power a large place like Star Island. Even though this project if very costly over the years Star Island will save lots of many compared to there resorts.
