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

Buy The Maggie from Amazon 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!
