Hydro-power hotspots
The Environment Agency today published a map of 26,000 sites in England and Wales that are deemed suitable for small scale hydro schemes. Together they could generate 1% of the UK's energy requirements and owners of such installations will earn up to 20p/kWh under the Feed-In Tariffs scheme from April 1st.
