[QUOTE="Exfarmer, post: 7179764, member: 1951"] The 9p for nuclear is the so called strike price. They are guaranteed this for each unit. These turbines are getting 22 p sub then 3-6p for each unit produced. wholesale price of Electric has averaged around 4.5 p overbthe last few years, so the nuclear boys are getting a guaranteed twice the price. in fact the subs on those NI turbines is nothing compared to the early FITs for Wind, fairly certain they are in the order of 50 odd pence just as some PV is. My own house is around 44p . But from what I have seen of turbines, there is far more to it, than raking in the dosh, 2 I know well would not pay for themselves in 100 years at their current rate. In fact I cannot understand why the operator does not abandon them as servicing costs , must more than eat up any income from them [/QUOTE]
