Scotland welcomes EDF’s offshore wind project
The National 10th May 2018 , NICOLA Sturgeon has welcomed the decision by the French energy giant EDF to
buy a large offshore wind project off the coast of Scotland for more than
€500 million from its Irish developer.
The project, dubbed Neart naGaoithe, which means “strength of the wind” in Gaelic, was delayed by
several years because of a legal challenge concerning its impact on
seabirds, but ultimately gained approval and won a government subsidy
contract. The deal follows similar investments by EDF, which has pushed
into renewables in recent years with big deals ranging from solar in Dubai
to wind projects in Chile.

Now if only EDF would shut-down its Scottish nuclear power stations with cracked graphite which may lead to a nuclear accident. They also need to shut-down the English ones. And, let’s not forget its French ones.
