I have been looking at your Renewable Energy Map today as I am preparing a presentation on energy saving and renewables for my local Rotary club. I am most impressed…..
This is a great resource. I have found a couple of minor mapping errors but otherwise the info is absolutely great. If I had one request it would be for Anaerobic digestion power plants but I guess these would all be too small?
Anaerobic digestion power plants: Generally these are too small, also there is the challenge of finding the data. Generally I try to include all publicly reported schemes that are about 0.5MB or larger. Realistically this excludes just about all Solar PV as though the amount of solar PV generated electricity is growing and certainly not insignificant, it is made up of many small installations. However, in both cases, I am happy to include any generation where it is serving a public amenity, ie not a private home.
Hi Solar
My search engine found your map.
Perhaps you may include Tidal Energy Devices under development? We have one or two in Lowestoft.

Hi Well done on the website map of renewables. Of course it cannot cover small scale CHP for domestic use. Have you considered Fuel cell CHP sites I believe Woking council have a large one. I also tried the No 10 petition on feed in tariffs for fuel cells in particular.
Which brings me to the question of wind power providing for separation of hydrogen by electricity and storage in powdered hydrate powders in low pressure bottles for subsequent use in a fuel cell, can this be done easily?. Will it provide consistent power in a small CHP installation at a farm shop which is off grid i.e.lots of money to connect .
I would appriciate your comments coming from an experienced wind power user and aware of fuel cell technology.
Thanks in advance
