Does the Falklands need a new wind farm?

But the Falklands feel it is not enough and besides the current wind farm is reaching its renewal date. No wonder then that notice has been given of the planning applications submitted for the Farm Expansion of Sand Bay Wind Farm to include 3 by E70 Enercon wind energy converters and battery storage. FIG and c/o Glenn figure as the applicant.

Could the Falklands become an energy powerhouse?

The Falklands might seem an odd candidate to become an energy powerhouse. The likely presence of commercial quantities of oil has been known for decades, yet successful development has always seemed improbable. The Islands were too remote, the weather too inhospitable, the cost too high. Now, however, the odds are shortening.

Does Norfolk Island have too much solar energy?

That’s pretty impressive given its remoteness and a population of 1,849. But this uptake has also caused some headaches in managing Norfolk Island’s electricity network, with too much solar energy goodness generated at times. The Tesla battery system installed in December 2020 has helped out on that front.
