GD4ELI Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 So, solar panels installed mid-February, the data is below. There is always a small grid usage as the inverter runs off the grid. Also, having panels I do have excess electricity, so use devices such as a tumble dryer more frequently. - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CM Cannan bangs on about uncertainty, tourists and new residents etc etc etc. Basically talking shit, as if anyone is going to take his opinion into account. He says COMIN are going to meet imminently in a bid to clarify the position, whatever that is supposed to mean? Perhaps that fighting talk is to keep Daffy Daffers and the Climate Change mob happy? Who are the climate change mob? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I and many will be happier if this sustainable energy is cheaper, translated into lower bills. Sadly islanders will still be paying for the sins of the past, and paying off the investment.

Two-lane Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 It's nitpicking I know, but a man's gotta do what man's... "The green light has been given to progress plans for an offshore windfarm in the south of the Island." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daffy, Joney Faragher, Sarah Maltby and lots of other politicos who jumped on the climate change bandwagon. In the meantime, the same lot love the TT and the polluting motorcycles, along with the cruise liners, which spew fossil fuel emissions into the atmosphere. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
