[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 803492, member: 175144"] Two out of the seven sites on the Thames are now populated with these devices. They have been installed at weirs where the potential energy was simply lost though the 3metre drop to the other side. _http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2076675/Merry-waves-Windsor-Green-Queen-uses-water-power-run-castle.html Unfortunately there are a couple of spanners being thrown into the works but I am unsure just why there is an outcry. The opposition could at least have used recycled materials to raise objection at Sunbury lock, rather than reams of copier paper/not stuck them onto trees with drawing pins and possibly have got their grammar correct before wasting ink on them (I suppose there is one less letter printed out, so this M.A.D. group is also saving the environment in their own way).
