* The bulk of the oil off the shores of Guyana is located close to Venezuela.

* And the Venezualans have made it clear to the big International oil companies that they are not receptive to any drilling close to Venezuela.


ANYWAY, FORGET OIL---BIG OPPORTUNITIES EXIST IN HYDRO & WIND FARMING

* Guyana is receiving 250 million dollars from Norway ----an incentive for Guyana avoiding deforestation.

* The government can use 100 million of that 250 million as equity in the amaila falls hydro.

* The Chinese are willing to provide the debt financing once a Chinese company does the construction of amaila.

* THERE IS NO NEED FOR SITHE GLOBAL/BLACKSTONE GROUP to be the amaila project sponsor.

* Sithe global wants a guaranteed 19% Return on investment.

* That would be great for them---but bad for Guyana.

* Once again---the Guyana government ought to use portion of the 250 million they are getting from Norway to get amaila going.

how does a wind farm works?  suppose there is no wind?

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

HOW A WIND FARM WORKS

https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ5LnJ39LyesyVKbhv_wmxeXu-K-B68CG5aRjR-H-ERPXdLD1pY

* Wind has kinetic energy---that gets converted into mechanical energy by the rotation of turbine blades---and the mechanical energy gets converted into electricity by generators inside the hub of the structure.


SUPPOSE THERE IS NO WIND

* As long as there is a sun---there will always be wind---wind originates from the sun.

* But wind is unpredictable---and the availability of wind energy is not constant.

* So wind energy is ideal as a supplement.

* For example, in Guyana, owners of the wind farm can sell electricity to GPL.

* But wind energy will not be ideal for the base load.


WIND POWER WORLDWIDE

* 2.5% of electricity worldwide is provided by wind power---and growing at 25% a year.

Guyanese have a tendency to pass wind :

Dem does leggo rale powerful ones : register on de Richter scale ....

IF harnessed , could light up an entire Village !! 


pass wind verb

Flatulence is defined in the medical literature as "flatus expelled through the anus"

or the "quality or state of being flatulent", which is defined in turn as

"marked by or affected with gases generated in the intestine or stomach likely to cause flatulence"
