Part ownership of a Ripple Wind Turbine, fancy it?

[ecogeorge]

Faux-pais from ripple today I see from their seemingly not very capable nor proactive marketing dept ..at a guess.
A feedback questionnaire as a " reservation owning non buyer in ripple" (the focus is on DW) sent erroneously.

Followed by a "email sent in error" notification (likely many of you got it also)

Got that too ............ but at least they apologised .............
We all f**k up , its how you put it right that matters.
An apology has me on their side.

Sounds like the ball rolling momentum was as per chatter well short of expectations, people wanted wind (and all the servicing complications that arise from its engineering as perceived faster payback / bang for buck, of which nowty's latest graphs attest to performance gaps between the 3.

Sounds like the next project will be back to WT's
They are asking which people actually want now, a move they should have done first rather than months of silence & drum-roll surprise (& disappointment) & specifically if they held off investing due to it (DW) being solar.

The equivalent of many kids opening the biggest xmas present box under the tree & getting a knock off games console instead of the xbox / playstation.

Yes but those in power don't like it, well in England anyway.

On the flip side, (positive like)

Go to a tory / whoever is in power next time..

State that "x" thousand people want to invest in British renewables with more coming.

Self funding power that forms a circular investment economy, pays taxes in the uk, moves towards govt imposed renewables targets, ukraine, energy independence blah blah blah..
Then ask for a tax break lower than that given to the fossil fuel industry that recognises community power initiatives, ..cup their balls & squeeze!

‘Get on, get back or get out of the energy queue’ - ESO announces urgent action to speed up electricity grid connections by up to 10 years

I suspect Ripple KH and DW are "getting it on" so should be OK with their connection timetable.

Project 4 is open for deposits.

Project 4 is open for deposits.

Only way is for me to come up with more lies evidence.


500,000 kWh seems to be the largest number that can be applied for without the update button greying out.

So thats a 3 phase supply drawing just over 19kW per phase 24/7.

Maybe trade out of some current and back in about project 7 if its interesting but unlikely.

There is another solar Coop offer very soon with Energy4all on schools and public buildings but the payout looks roughly half that of Ripple DW.

I will be waiting for the Scotwind Offshore offering from Energy4all but I think its not until near the end of this decade.

I'd in for Scotwind.

All KH components now safely stored in port and a dry test run to site.
