EU to bring solar power to the north

Postby kafenes » Tue Sep 23, 2008 3:25 pm

THE EU is ready to invest €4 million in a solar energy project in the north as part of its aid programme for the Turkish Cypriot community.

The European Commission has started a project to build a pilot solar power plant for the Turkish Cypriot community that will deliver electricity to the grid in 2009. Experts are currently preparing a concept study to determine the best location and most efficient method of exploiting sunlight to produce electrical energy in the north.

The pilot power plant, which will generate a maximum 1MW of electricity, should be up and running by summer 2009, and is expected to produce over 1.5 million kWh per year.

The energy experts will discuss the opportunities and technologies available for Cyprus in renewable energies this Thursday at the EU Programme Support Office, 38-44 Kyrenia Avenue in Nicosia at 9am.

The two topics presented will be ‘The Global Energy (R)evolution’ and ‘Solar Power Generation - State of the Art and Prospects for Cyprus’.Both presentations will be followed by an open discussion. The event is open to all interested parties, subject to seating availability.

Is that the first thing that comes to your mind? It will probably be fed into the grid , so yes a few watts will go into lighting the flag.

As far as I know only a small fraction of the 257m has been spent so far, it looks like most of it will go back into the EU budget.

halil,
i'm sorry but this is bullshit. last year in our/your village they called in the jcb's and knocked down loads of fantastic houses. we went mad. you know this.
we also spoke with them in the tourist department regarding investing in a eco tourist project regarding the village , we were sent packing.they didn't want our 100k.
the only people stupid enought to restore the old houses in the village, are us, the stupid english. what thanks do we get none.
so if the tourist department or goverment think that any other stupid english people will spend their hard earned cash in the tc village and be racially abused then they must be dreaming.
the racist bit is not directed at you halil, but there are no secrets in a village so i'm sure you do know who i am talking about.
