Apparently you have to click on the "+" at the end of all the news items!
Quick update on work on site at Graig Fatha. The cables are being jointed at the moment. Vensys will arrive on site on Friday and WPD will energise the connection on Sunday. This will enable G99 testing to be done on Monday. The turbine commissioning should complete on Wednesday.

Keep your eyes peeled for the big switch on event the week after!
Hooray!

One of their objectives from the funding they received (late 2020) from a minority equity sale via seedrs was to have the app ready for WT1.
https://www.seedrs.com/ripple2

10% Website + app development

Our tech team will develop Ripple's app in house so it is ready when the pilot wind farm begins operation. We will also make improvements to the website.
