Part ownership of a Ripple Wind Turbine, fancy it?
Re: Part ownership of a Ripple Wind Turbine, fancy it?
A great couple of days at GF with 79kWh into the VB over the last two days. Had a quick look at Turnberry site this morning and wind speeds are double (at least) in comparison to GF over the next 4 days.
Example being predicted, wind speed for Monday at 7am
T-8.7mph
GF-1.9mph
There is definitely an emerging trend here, coupled with an even more conservative output estimate in comparison to GF while the prospectus was live leads me to be hopeful that all you guys on standby for Kirkhill WT's to go live are going to be very pleasantly surprised at the take. As will I!

Re: Part ownership of a Ripple Wind Turbine, fancy it?
Figures may be conservative compared to the prospectus, but generally I am still seeing no more than 75% of the website daily predictions for GF and often 50 or below.
Let's hope autumn brings more consisitent output. Mind you, if the next 3 quarters are the same as the first 3 months it will have given a 10% return, (split 45% capital, 55% "output") so I am not grumbling.

Some action going on at Kirk Hill WT2, a ripple member snapped this un-official picture a few days ago, looks like the drilling rig for the core samples.

Re: Part ownership of a Ripple Wind Turbine, fancy it?
Great to see activity. Was speaking with son about this very thing on the drive down to Dover yesterday as he isan investor. He is well chuffed!
I think this may be my first combined 100kWh day. I will have to wait until 13th June to Confirm.
Looks like it though.n

Sadly not: 23rd April yet to be beaten... assuming we all get the same proportion of our share - and that I didn't mis-type my generation!

Re: Part ownership of a Ripple Wind Turbine, fancy it?
Very close, but the wind dropped off a bit towards the end of the day. Still managed to just squeak past a combined 100 kWh for the day,AE-NMidlands wrote: ↑Sun Jun 05, 2022 10:22 amSadly not: 23rd April yet to be beaten... assuming we all get the same proportion of our share - and that I didn't mis-type my generation!

WT1 51kWh
Solaredge 33kWh
Victron 19kWh
New PB 103kWh
Now that it has fallen and when the new 1.2kW of panels are up and running it should be an often seen reoccurrence.
How the game has moved on. VB banking is the way to go!
