RE:RE:RE:RE:Work on pioneering Stirling heat network to commenceYes I saw the date discrepancy and forgot to make mention of it I meant to....completion in '18 can not be correct since the shovels are just hitting the soil now and could either be a simple typo one tends to see this time of year, or the fact that back in 2016/17 Stirling in the preliminary stages had 2018 as the original target for completion
McDinglefritz seems to think this and other project timeframes, which in this business ALL tend to be moving targets that extend, is all Mr. Mueller's fault ... but the fact of the matter is the sheer scope of projects like Stirling at the engineering stages combined with regulatory & grant/financing hurdles are not only beyond our comprehension, but also along the way have many decisions by committee/bureaucrats that inherently cause delays
It could be that my posts about Stirling were so long ago they were on the old 'IWS' board which got wiped out after our ticker change ..not important and I haven't wasted any time to look
but our joint venture w/Scottish Water Horizons will continue to ramp up YOY and is why our capacity to execute on a larger scale has increased substantially over there in recent months ... and why have we hired several new people with initials behind their names in mid '18
On another note .. as I'm in a speculative mood...did I or anyone ever post this article on Northern Ireland delegates visiting Borders? Been seeing lots of headlines about Ireland deploying a ton of capital toward renewables in the near term and could well be our first Engie collaboration
https://www.borderscollege.ac.uk/news-and-events/college-shares-energy-innovation-with-northern-ireland-delegates/ Or perhaps something with Engie is in the works in Australia first?

https://www.governmenteuropa.eu/sustainable-eco-district-paris-engie-nexity/89450/ Tough to say with ENGIE having such a GIANT footprint around the WORLD what will happen first ... pretty sure I posted this article from their UK division in October and could be tied to several of the DE projects I've posted about in London recently
