CrazyDave Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 5 minutes ago, Cambon said: No existing grid, no suitable roads, no suitable landing stage, no possibility to keep spares, and that is the best to “experts” can come up with? How about a couple on the headland behind Peel power station, connecting straight into the grid? If the solar farm goes ahead at Andreas, they will need to install infrastructure, so it will be available for turbines at Jurby. Oh and look, loads of warehouse space for spares. It doesn’t require experts as much as common sense. Its all int their documents, and was covered in detail at the government conference. Sorry, but I am going to go with the experts rather than a random on the internet. https://youtu.be/FO-RVj1dFdY?si=uC0mlIA8O57h-dta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you and your experts have bankrupted the island for no gain, please switch the light off when you leave. Oh, hang on, there wont be any electricity to run the lights in the first place. Remember, it was experts who said the Liverpool landing stage would cost £25M Edited March 5 by Cambon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred the shred Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 It was experts that thought the Roundhouse was a great idea and would not need a suitable entry and exit road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manx Resident Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Listened to the Mannin Line today. A lady called Sam called in and asked Mr Cannan MHK and Mr Johnston MHK about the importance of the IOM Biosphere. As a follow-up she began to speak about a site where archeological finds were apparently being dug up but said the site was going to be built upon without any public awareness of the plans. Mr Wint then cut the lady short saying the programme was about issues in Ayre and Michael. Subsequently, Mr Johnston was asked about the state of IOM farming, the use of fertilizer and he commented on the Laxey Mills. There was also discussion about travel writers coverage of IOM and a last minute question about the Earystane Wind Farm. No further constituency issues were discussed up to the end of the programme. A sceptic might think that the politicians were being given an easy ride by the presenter who was actively managing (censoring) difficult calls and text messages. 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyWolf Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Turned of not long after that , Wint was wrong to shut her down just proves to me he a government boot licker and he probably filters out any awkward questions ,time to get rid of him. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barlow Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Ah good ol' Windbag Wint. Filters out awkward questions and/or amends the meaning of emails sent in. I would expect he is looking for a cushy Government job like so many of his former Manx Radio colleagues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, are you now arguing that the well established science of geothermal gradient is wrong? It isn’t. Geothermal power is possible anywhere on earth. It all comes down to money. Put it another way. If there was £10 Billion worth of diamonds or gold down there, Alfie would be personally digging with his finger nails. The promise of 100+ years of guaranteed power security is not enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they favour stable granite. I remember seeing on a geological map of the island...two such small spots. These ever been mentioned on the radio?
