Time to move out of the city???

Living near heavy traffic increases risk of dementia, say scientists

Study tracking 6.6 million people estimates one in 10 cases of Alzheimer’s among those living by busy roads could be linked to air and noise pollution

People living near a busy road have an increased risk of dementia, according to research that adds to concerns about the impact of air pollution on human health.

Roughly one in 10 cases of Alzheimer’s in urban areas could be associated with living amid heavy traffic, the study estimated – although the research stopped short of showing that exposure to exhaust fumes causes neurodegeneration.

So ten years ago the greens were telling us to buy diesel cars because they were greener, now they tell us to get rid of them because they are highly polluting.Typical of the emotional thinking of environmentalists. Most of their ' initiatives' always seem to have ' unintended consequences'. A bit like biofuels too. Can't think why that is.Still the unintended consequences of windmills and solar gives us our opportunity with red.

Interesting in the Guardian, might not seem relevant to redT today but if they follow similar direction of other major cities and ban diesel cars and with electric vehicles falling drastically a faster take-up of these will in turn create a greater need for energy storage...




London has breached its annual air pollution limits just five days into 2017, a “shameful reminder of the severity of London’s air pollution”, according to campaigners.

By law, hourly levels of toxic nitrogen dioxide must not be more than 200 micrograms per cubic metre (µg/m3) more than 18 times in a whole year, but late on Thursday this limit was broken on Brixton Road in Lambeth.

Many other sites across the capital will go on to break the annual limit and Putney High Street exceeded the hourly limit over 1,200 times in 2016. Oxford Street, Kings Road in Chelsea and the Strand are other known pollution hotspots.

NO2 pollution, which is produced largely by diesel vehicles, causes 5,900 early deaths every year in London. Most air quality zones across the country break legal limits and the crisis was called a “public health emergency” by MPs in April. This week scientists said that one in 10 cases of Alzheimer’s in people living near busy roads could be linked to air pollution.

scores of islands

"Scotland has over 790 offshore islands, most of which are to be found in four main groups: Shetland, Orkney, and the Hebrides, sub-divided into the Inner Hebrides and Outer Hebrides."

HUGE ORDERS!!!! $263 million dollars worth as we stand today, perhaps more.... it's going to be one huge company this, next industrial revolution...

From FT earlier this year referring to those approved Gigha units....

"The trial is drawing close attention from policy makers and renewables developers. Paul Wheelhouse, the Scottish government’s energy minister, visited the town of Cumbernauld near Glasgow this month to inspect a Gigha-bound redT device as it was put through its paces at Scotland’s Power Networks Demonstration Centre.

Mr Wheelhouse said he was impressed by the technology hidden inside the unprepossessing grey container at the centre — adding that Scotland had scores of islands that might benefit from it. “Clearly, we will learn a lot from what happens in Gigha,” the minister said. “It is exciting to see it deployed in a real-life situation.”

Timothy Cornelius, chief of tidal power developer Atlantis Resources, says the Gigha trial is “of extreme interest”. Atlantis is building one of the world’s largest tidal power arrays in Scotland’s Pentland Firth and expects energy storage to play a big role in future projects, particularly when they involve islands with limited grid connections.

“We fully subscribe to the idea that storage is the revolution,” Mr Cornelius says. “If they can prove [vanadium redox flow works as billed] then Scott McGregor will be one of the first people I call.”

Dlg - Vionx?

[dlg3] 06/1/2017 22:40

I will leave you with a thought for the weekend.....

RedT "claims it can sell the batteries at half the price or less of its rivals."

now if that is correct then REDT is in for some huge orders!!!!!



I will post a word here just for future referance XFLOW lets see if I am right!!!

12bn and fronby must be brothers or lovers.....you have 12bm looking at the charts upside down and fronby with rising pullbacks

[dlg3] 06/1/2017 22:22

Dr Dark Star, fronby has been short from birth....when that RNS lands we may have a pullback of a 140% rise........I do love these pullbacks.....

[dr darkstar] 06/1/2017 21:48

Fronby has clearly never traded in his life. The miniscule pullback will be some very cautious short term traders closing over the weekend; means nothing at all

[pierre oreilly] 06/1/2017 21:44

Yeah Fromby, i just wish all my shares would fall back sharply to a weekly 45% rise.

Could well be much worse next week of course, maybe only 44%.

[dogrunner11] 06/1/2017 21:38

is that your shed Fronby? hope its not near that sea

[fronby] 06/1/2017 20:55

Slipping back sharply at close I notice.
Doesnt bode well for next week.

S
un, the oldest source of energy, enriching life with all the basic amenities
required to sustain life on earth from thousands of decades. The solar energy
developments in this booming technological and commercially vigorous
world has rendered engineers and scientists to harness it with a wide range
of applications (lighting, heating, cooling, rural electrification, and many industrial
applications). India being a tropical country is bestowed with ample solar energy with
around 300 sunny days in a year. The total installed capacity of India as on March 31,
2016 is 298,060 MW in which solar along with other renewable sources contributes
38,822 MW. The solar radiation of about 5,000 trillion kWh per year is incident over its
land mass with average daily solar power potential of 0.25 kWh per m2
of used land
area with the commercially available. As on March 31, 2016, the total solar installed
capacity of India is 6,762.85 MW. India expects to install an additional 10,000 MW by
2017 and a total of 100,000 MW by 2022.

Sweden’s development agency will
finance a €20 million ($22 million)
fund to develop clean energy in
Zambia through 2018. The Viennabased
Renewable Energy and Energy
Efficiency Partnership (REEEP) said it
will also work with Power Africa and
other partners to roll out the project.
The programme will probably focus
on off-grid solar systems in the first
year. It plans to install small hydro
power plants and ;mini-grids later on.
REEEP will implement the
projects and be responsible for the
contracting. Power Africa, an initiative
set up by the US President Mr Barack
Obama in 2013 to boost electricity
access, will provide an advisory role.
The Swedish embassy in the Zambian
capital of Lusaka will help with
collaboration and local government
relations. The group aims to bring
renewable electricity supplies to
167,000 households, reaching one
million people. About 95 per cent of
rural Zambians do not have access to
energy

Although there is not clear national data, regulatory filings from Tamil Nadu, where the problem is thought to be the most extreme, put the curtailment rate for wind power between 33 percent and 50 percent -- an astonishingly high figure.

India Already Has a Problem With Wasting Renewable Energy on the Grid

The country can learn from China, Germany and Texas on how to mitigate the problem.

by Jamie Manley
October 04, 2016

India ratified the Paris climate agreement this week, officially underscoring its commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Yet just two years after embarking on an ambitious campaign to scale up renewable energy, India is facing a curious problem: too much solar and wind power in some parts of the country.

In July, for the first time, the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu was unable to use all the solar power it generated. Later in the month, Jayaram Jayalalitha, the chief minister of Tamil Nadu, wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi urging him to speed up the construction of an inter-state green energy corridor that would allow renewable power to be transmitted and used in other states instead of being wasted.

And in August, Tarun Kapoor, India’s joint secretary of the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, wrote a letter asking electricity regulators to fully utilize solar power following complaints that grid operators were letting renewable energy go to waste.

As developing countries lead the world in renewable energy investment, India’s experience highlights a larger question: Will the grid be a major roadblock for renewable energy development across the developing world?

From India to China to Chile, a significant portion of future renewable energy could go to waste without careful planning.

Solar and wind only accounted for 3.5 percent of the power generated in India in 2015. But if the government achieves its ambitious targets for renewable energy deployment, the amount of solar and wind power on the grid could quadruple by 2022. Yet there are already signs that the grid’s ability to absorb these new power sources could be a major bottleneck for renewable energy growth in India, jeopardizing the country’s energy and climate goals.

Indian State Of Uttar Pradesh Expects $6 Billion Renewable Energy Investment

The northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh has joined a long list of states that have signed agreements with project developers to set up large-scale renewable energy projects.

According to media reports, the Uttar Pradesh government has signed agreements with a number of companies to set up renewable energy projects. Through such agreements, the state government expects a total investment of over $6 billion.

Uttar Pradesh government targets adding around 10.6 GW of solar power, 3.5 GW of biomass-based power capacity and 25 MW of small hydropower capacity by 2022. In the near future, 500 MW of solar power capacity is expected to be added by 2017.

Despite being one of the largest states in terms of power consumption, Uttar Pradesh has lagged its peers in increased renewable energy infrastructure. The state agencies have auctioned and allocated some solar power projects, but the tariffs have been noticeably higher than those seen in other states like Rajasthan, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh.
