Some nice generation at Ripple GF today and I’ve just noticed my share of generation has now exceeded 11 MWh. :mrgreen:

Looking forward to KH start generating too. :twisted:

Cast the mind back to GF buy in & build. Seems like moments ago eh? I do hope they have an open day for KH. I'd quite like to buy Jamie & Crew a pint. :twisted:

Great to see the update from Jamie and derigging of the crane from Turbine 2. With fine weather for the next two days might we see Turbine 3 completed before the next gale arrives with some good figures from GF to follow! :)
