Anger at plans for nuclear power station to replace wind farm
This would be ironic...
These are quotes from an article by Terry Macalister in the U.K. Guardian:
"'It is true there is an overlap and it could lead to some turbines needing to be moved or the whole site being used. But we would have to discuss that with the operator and landowner,' said a spokesman for RWE.
'Its worth pointing out that we could build up to 3,600 megawatts of low or free CO2 power compared to the 3.5MW or so of wind power that we might replace. And it's not a case or wind or nuclear. We ourselves are spending over £1bn on wind.'"
