The Ortoire block has such huge potential- and with discoveries on every drill so far (still believe Chinook updip will find oil) we got ourselves ahead of the game
No bad thing but as discoveries have been amazing , developing them has been woeful
I have first hand experience of solar farm development here
From first approach 2 years ago we are only just at option signing stage - went to planning last summer and turned down as bird surveys were deemed to be required at last moment - (over winter)
So 2 years on we go back to planning committee
Now Northern power say no capacity on grid till they upgrade line next Spring !!
What should take 6 months max will be a 3.5 yr project for me
What I’m trying to say is these situations seem to arise for all developments on whatever scale - but hopefully will get a result in the end
- It is hugely frustrating!!!
Maybe Coho online next week ??-and Cascadura online before my Solar ??
