Wave power on Islay explained

Monday, March 26 2007

Already 6 months ago I wrote about the Wave Power installation on Islay near Portnahaven called a Limpet 500. Limpet means Land Installed Marine Powered Energy Transformer, 500 being the amount of Kilowatts fed into Islay's grid. Today I accidently found a very interesting video on the website from Greenpeace demonstrating the Limpet 500 system on Islay.

The Maggie

The Maggie is one of Ealing studios lesser known comedies. It is however a 'gem' in the true sense of the word. The film has everything, humour, tragedy, pathos, romance. A wily old skipper of a Western Isles 'Puffer' and his motley crew lead all who come into contact with them a fine old time!
