We went on a trip to Sizewell B power station today (group trip with
some other home educating families). At the end of trip, in the visitor centre entrance, one of guides was showing some of them the current Uk power station outputs on an iPad. Yup it was showing the Gridwatch website :-) -- Chris French |

It seems to refer to Sizewell C as a proposal, which is very early days. -- Graeme |

It also surprises me that the same PTB haven't got round to providing readily available data on solar power, bearing in mind the emphasis and widespread interest in renewable energy sources. Surely the data must exist somewhere, otherwise how do TPTB know how much to reimburse the Harry's of this world, Harry's send in their generation reading every month/quarter and get paid accordingly plus a bonus of 50% of that generation that has been deemed to be exported, even if none has been exported. So no realtime data on these purely financial investment installations is available. ... or the big commercial operators with their acres of solar farms? That ought to be realtime available but have we actually got much large scale solar PV? Does even get to a single gigawatt flat out? -- Cheers Dave. |

Well, you know how to interpret that then ... smile I did spend quite a lot of time reading about the original proposal, the projections etc. Rail terminal, roads etc. Although we're now in Aberdeenshire, I know that part of the world quite well, and should we ever move back south, Suffolk/Norfolk will probably be top of the list. -- Graeme |
