Camping above Wylfa Power Station

Some one has spent a couple of nights camping high above the power station.

Bat House at Tyn y Maes

All roosts are protected by law.

Except if you go by the right procedures, when you can do what you like. As long as you do it at the right time of year and employ people with licenses to handle bats.

This bat house was built only because Horizon demolished 14 houses, many which bats used - and one that had a maternity roost in it.

East of Porth Wen

There are five locations proposed along this coast for landing cables on Anglesey from the Celtic Array wind farm proposed between the island and the Isle of Man. All between Bull Bay and Llaneilian.
Each will connect to a sub-station and then to the sub-station at Wylfa or the grid lines leading from Wylfa. You can see the Isle of man from here on clear days, so all the wind turbines will be seen also. Just like all the ones off Llandudno, where the cables came ashore near St Asaph and were buried underground to a substation in land.

Horizon Supply Chain Meeting in Llandudno - Not on Anglesey

The following is part of a call for potential supplier to attend a presentation about how to bid for work. But the meeting for the Wylfa site is not on Anglesey but is to held in Llandudno.  So no money being put into conference venues local to the Wylfa site then. Not much opportunity to maximize opportunity locally then even at this early stage! Meeting date 21 may - but places said to be limited, but no mention of to how many though.

Extract from Notice of meeting -

Horizon Nuclear Power is bringing forward plans to develop a new generation of nuclear power stations and has two proposed sites – Wylfa, on the Isle of Anglesey and Oldbury, in South Gloucestershire. These projects represent a business opportunity for companies across the UK. Horizon and Hitachi-GE Nuclear Energy (HGNE) will work to maximise opportunities for involvement in our projects for local, regional and national companies.
