No to Asserby Wind Farm II

Here we go 
300 Wind Turbines 20miles off the coast so we won't actually see them. 


GOOD. 

1200MW of potential power to power almost 1million homes - GREAT - but they need to connect it all to Grid. 

AS I was saying earlier because the power isn't where it is wanted (not many people in the North Sea!!), we need the infrastructure on the Grid to pipe it in to where it is needed. So very good - does East Lindsey get any benefit? Not really. Then with the CONSTRAINT payments they'll get a whacking payment for NOT supplying any power to Grid - even if the Wind Farm is NOT connected to the Grid. CRAZY.
