Ramsey Wind Farm extension
Renewable Energy Generation Limited ("REG") (AIM: WIND), the UK renewable energy group, today announces that Huntingdonshire District Council has resolved to grant planning permission for an extension to its operating Ramsey wind farm.
Construction of four new turbines adjacent to the existing Vestas 1.8MW machine will boost the site's clean energy output to around 27GWh per annum, making it one of REG's most productive wind farms.
Formal planning permission is expected to follow shortly and subject to the expiry of the three month legal challenge period, the project is expected to enter construction in 2014.
Andrew Whalley, REG Chief Executive Officer, said: "The existing turbine has performed extremely well since we installed it in 2008 so the extra four turbines will be an excellent addition to REG's portfolio.
"Achieving a resolution to grant planning permission at local authority level is tremendously welcome as it avoids the need to enter the time-consuming appeal process."

NEW DELHI, May 20 -- The government of India issued the following news release:

The surplus power from the States can be transferred to a power deficit State through the Inter-State Transmission System (ISTS) from the source of supply depending upon the available transfer capacity (ATC) between the point of supply and point of drawl. Open Access in transmission (introduced by the Central Government through Electricity Act, 2003), trading mechanism and Power Exchange in accordance with the relevant regulations notified by CERC facilitate this process. National Grid, for evacuation of power from generating sources located in different regions in the country and facilitating transfer of power from surplus to deficit regions, is in place. In addition, licenses have been granted for trading of power. Power exchanges have also been set up for facilitating transfer of power from surplus to deficit States. The surplus power available with the States is also supplied by the States to other needy and desirous States under bilateral arrangements.

THE situation is really quite serious. We will have to keep our coal-fired power stations open and get fined by the EU," says UK energy expert, Prof Ian Fells.

Speaking from his home in Gosforth, he continued: "By 2015 we will be vulnerable. For the last four years the Government has been sitting on its hands doing nothing, and this is really unacceptable."

Back in 2004 Prof Fells warned of the UK's looming energy crisis and he followed this up in 2008 with a 50-page paper elaborating on his views.

Its publication was picked up by various media outlets and he recounts: "I appeared on Radio Four with Lord Hutton (Government minister with responsibility for energy security issues) where I was accused of being an alarmist.
