Part ownership of a Ripple Wind Turbine, fancy it?

I feel for the poor lady who deals with the unruly lot on their Facebook page, ..it's akin to an oil refinery full of chain smoking monkey's smacking uxb's hard
with wrenches.

& That ladies & germs is why I don't do facebook, in a nutshell.

I have to 100% agree with you Gus, the quality of chat on 3 octopus / ripple facebook forums I occasionally look at is shocking.

Very little there to see.

This on the other hand is outstanding.

Reading Ripples update for the excellent WT performance in low wind April, we could see a 17% increase in our personal annual takes from GF. My own personal hope was for a 7% lift. No complaints here! I hope they have the DNO furl signal sorted and last thing is the intermittent data down which I'm sure will be sorted.

A 17% lift would take me from 6,972 kWh predicted to a very heady 8,157kWh pa. Its very early days and it would be reckless to predict what this sort of performance could entail for the combined wind farms in comparison to the prospectus figures...

That being said at 17% lift from our current combined wind farm prediction of 20,904kWh takes us to the frankly insane figure of 24,457kwh pa. Can do a lot with that, may be running an extension lead over to son's house in Winter.

Hmmmm...
-0.03 yesterday (the first for a whole day) instead of a predicted 18.5 kWhr. I wonder whether the social media users have got any info?
(I don't do any of them, but it is frustrating that lots of other companies give quick responses by those routes, but don't pay much attention to more traditional communications. I suppose that if the dialogue is public there's a lot more presure to be seen to be answering.)

It will hopefully be a data down from yesterday affecting yesterday's count. I agree that an update should have been.posted yesterday at close of play 17.00 hrs.

The data feed is indeed down again running over from yesterday. Took myself away from pina colada to check, serefe!

[Mr Gus]

So what is the reason behind data loss & What is proposed to improve uptime?

No idea Gus, They have moved the Ariel at least once, from inside to outside. That's not to say the drop out isn't at any of the multiple points downstream of ariel. Gotta hope that they have tested the upstream side properly? It's under warranty so a vestas problem to solve? Or is it? It's a shame as this combined with no comms to investors when it fails makes an otherwise excellent package look a bit shaky, which it isn't, yet...

Simple to do, 16.59hrs on any day of failure.

Sorry, datalink is down from Turbine today, working on it. Don't worry, turbine is generating, thanks!'

[Joeboy]

Best day in ages yesterday and it goes tits up, smashing....

Outage is different to datalink is down, not impressed as they told me this morning it was comms.... I'm going to be honest, I think their reaction times and comms to investors are very

The scenario I see is that the WT tripped out yesterday early too and nobody noticed or assumed comms. 9am coming back online this morning? Too co-incidental for my liking. Not impressed.

'Outage at Graig Fatha yesterday

There was an outage at the wind farm yesterday. We are investigating the cause with the turbine manufacturer at the moment.

It is back generating now.'

Akin to not being able to use an ev Charger due to it sitting in the direct sun & cooking the comms kit!?
