Tim Streater brought next idea :
Which you get from where? And when it comes to pumping it out, where
does the water go?

It would be pumped out to a lagoon, then allowed to flow back via the
generators.

A lagoon eh? And just how big would this lagoon be and where do you
suggest it is located?

We already have one and it's pretty big, it's called 'the sea'. ;-)

Well some of our old coal mines are under the North Sea off the Durham
coast.

lifetime of seawater pumps and turbines is not great.

And if they bitch about fracking clean water plus a teensy bit of
antibacterial into the ground, what would they think about dumping
tonnes of seawater into the aquifers.

Oh. Of course. Greens dont think. They emote with their 'emotional
intelligence'
