IMG_4415_lean.jpg A Pelamis P2 wave energy generator on the dockside at Lyness on Hoy, Orkney Isles, Scotland, UK. The Orkney's have huge potential for wave and tidal energy generation and are world leaders in testing such devices. The pelamis P2 is 180 m long, weights 1300 tonnes and is rated at 750 Kw. It was the world's first commercial scale marine device to generate electricity to the grid, from offshore. The power is created from flexible joints that are linked to cylinders that pump liquid into high pressure accumulators to generate electricity. This shot shows a workman preparing to tow the devie to its test site.

IMG_8254_lean.jpg The jack up barge, The Goliath loading up with transition pieces for the Walney Offshore windfarm project, off Barrow in Furness, Cumbria, UK. When finished it will have 102, 3.6 MW turbines, giving a total capacity of the Walney project of 367.2 MW, enough to power 320,000 homes. The rotor diameter of the turbines is 107m for Walney 1 and 120 m for Walney 2. The wind farm is owned and constructed by Dong Energy.

366W6261_balloon.jpg Funafuti atol Tuvalu on the front line of the battle against global warming Only 15 feet above sea level at the highest point with many parts of the island lying at or barely above current sea levels rising sea levels are increasingly putting the island population of 10 000 Tuvaluans at risk It seems likely that this island nation will be the first country to disapear completely as a result of climate change global warming Sea levels in the Pacific have risen slowly over the last 20 years and the rate of rise seems likely to increase as ice sheets and glaciers melt more rapidly with ever warming temperatures Tuvalu is the smallest country in the world only 26 Km2 and most vulnerable to sea level rise It lies close to the equator and virtually on the international date line Ever rising seas threaten to make the island uninhabitable Already during the highest tides sea water is forced up through the porous coral atol and floods many low lying areas of the island during the highest tides This salt water incursion poisons the thin soils and makes growing crops increasingly difficult leaving the Tuvaluans increasingly dependant on expensive imports As well as sea level rise the weather patterns are altering with a shift in the cyclone period by a month and an increase in stormy weather The stormy weather is creating greater wave erosion and many parts of the island are suffering land loss as palm trees are washed into the sea as the island is undercut by wave action
