Site visitors are welcome to post comments on the petition or to ask questions - which the petitioners will do their best to answer. However, messages will be moderated and, while any critical comments will be posted unaltered, the usual constraints about Internet etiquette apply.the right question to ask So capacities were reduced several per cent but efficiencies rose several per cent so that output marginally increased. But isn't the most pertinent question: "was output post-refurb substantially & deliberately reduced relative to what it would have been after a hypothetical refurb uninfluenced by ROCs?". Looking at recent refurbs that were nowhere near the 20MW boundary should indicate whether downsizing of capacity generally makes sense or not.

Posted by p.nolan on 22 October 2008 Hydro ROCs Petition This scam has been known for many years so I am amazed it has taken so long for this attempt to correct the glaring corruption. Posted by Geoff Leet on 19 August 2008 Hydro Rocs It is a scandolous situation which never should have been allowed in the first place. The Scottish Parliament must change this to stop the public being ripped off to pay excessive Rocs to power firms. Furthermore, more energy could be produced if the original turbine sizes were to be reinstated, especially as many were built with public money prior to Rocs being introduced. Itis disgraceful that turbine sizes were reduced in order to gain ROCs. This must be stopped.
