==Electric power== Just over a mile north-east of the town, near the Seal Sanctuary, was the now-closed [[Theddlethorpe Gas Terminal]], which supplied 5 per cent of the UK's gas. To the west is the Bambers [[wind farm]], housing eight [[turbines]] and producing five [[Megawatts|MW]] of power since November 2004. An extension called Bambers II opened in November 2006 and produces an additional five MW of power.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1003427.|title = Geograph:: Wind Farm near Mablethorpe Β© Ian Paterson}}</ref> The two turbines of Mablethorpe wind farm, which produce 1.2 MW of power, were the first such in Lincolnshire when built in July 2002. All three wind farms are owned by [[Ecotricity]] and stand at the corner of West Bank and the Trusthorpe Drains. Mablethorpe's ''Star of the East'' is on the seafront.
