Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JDJ3XP - Fiddlers Ferry Power Station is a decommissioned coal fired power station located in Warrington, Cheshire, North-West England. Opened in 1971, the station had a generating capacity of 1,989 megawatts and took water from the River Mersey. After privatisation in 1990 the station was operated by various companies, and from 2004 by SSE Thermal. The power station closed on 31 March 2020.
With its eight 114-metre (374 ft) high cooling towers and 200-metre (660 ft) high chimney the station is a prominent local landmark and can be seen from as far away as the Peak District and the Pennines
An application to build Fiddler's Ferry Power Station was proposed in 1962.It was built by the Cleveland Bridge Company between 1964 and 1971, and came into full operation in 1973.There are eight cooling towers arranged in two groups of four located to the north and south of the main building. There is a single chimney located to the east of the main building. One of the station's cooling towers collapsed in high winds on 13 January 1984 and was rebuilt. When it was built, the station mainly burned coal mined in the South Yorkshire Coalfield and transported across the Pennines on the Manchester-Sheffield-Wath electric railway. Later the coal was imported.
Between 2006 and 2008 Fiddlers Ferry was fitted with Flue Gas Desulphurisation (FGD) plant to reduce the emissions of sulphur by 94%, meeting the European Large Combustion Plant Directive. In 2010, the station was being considered for the installation of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) equipment. This would reduce the station's emissions of nitrogen oxides, to meet the requirements of the Industrial Emissions (Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control) Directive. The SCR technology would replace the Separated Over Fire Air (SOFA) technology which was used in the station. The SCR equipment was not fitted due to uncertainty over the future of the plant.
The station was built by the Central Electricity Generating Board CEGB

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AJRT99 - . An on-location image from the recorded location in 2020, useful both for the specific subject shown and for the evidence it retains about local identity, design, use and everyday life. The image documents Green flag, green for go, beach flag, safe for bathing - low hazard, calm conditions. The setting also relates to safety messaging, everyday life, archival record, place identity, contemporary social history, social history, community identity, visual archive, documentary photography, changing land use, access-control notice, local history, historical comparison, and before-and-after reference. For contemporary context, customer management and child safeguarding are closely related themes, especially where the issue becomes how public spaces communicate rules quickly and visibly. For future researchers, the view documents a particular stage in the life of the location within the setting of the recorded location. Other useful associations include compliance notice, operational signage, rule enforcement, instructional sign, changing streetscape, period detail, venue rules, and visitor instruction. Elements such as Green, bathing, beach, hazard, and conditions add documentary specificity and may become more useful when compared with later records. By fixing the subject within the recorded location, the image preserves more than the headline object or building: it records part of the locality's everyday history. A further contemporary connection is customer management and the role of signs in shaping behaviour without staff intervention as part of the longer story of the recorded location. The wider significance includes customer management and the balance between access, safety and venue responsibility when considered against later change at the recorded location. Another strand within the photograph is child safeguarding and how public spaces communicate rules quickly and visibly without losing the local specificity of the recorded location.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AJRT9G - . An on-location image from the recorded location in 2020, useful both for the specific subject shown and for the evidence it retains about local identity, design, use and everyday life. The location is represented through Green flag, green for go, beach flag, safe for bathing - low hazard, calm conditions. The photograph also reflects rule enforcement, changing streetscape, period detail, community identity, compliance notice, contemporary social history, changing land use, public-facing notice, instructional sign, visual archive, customer guidance, visual regulation, historical comparison, and public information notice. The subject remains useful for current coverage of clear communication and regulation, not least because of the role of signs in shaping behaviour without staff intervention. As a dated visual record, the scene fixes the way the place functioned before later physical or commercial change in the immediate surroundings of the recorded location. The setting also brings in site information, documentary photography, venue rules, regional identity, operational signage, behavioural signage, before-and-after reference, and visitor instruction. Details involving conditions, beach, bathing, Green, and hazard give the scene useful specificity and strengthen its local, cultural or historical identity. A later view of the recorded location may show a very different setting, increasing the value of this precise record of its earlier appearance and activity. Another strand within the photograph is clear communication and the role of signs in shaping behaviour without staff intervention within the specific setting of the recorded location. The image also provides a reference for liability and how public spaces communicate rules quickly and visibly as part of the longer story of the recorded location. The period view preserves evidence of changing use before later change alters the scene.

This authentic period view of Great Britain, UK in 2019 preserves the main subject alongside smaller contextual details that can acquire greater historical value as places and uses change. The frame specifically shows Bulb and lamp recycling service - WEEE. The setting additionally reflects social history, historical comparison, local character, period detail, before-and-after reference, specialist retailer, contemporary social history, commercial frontage, retail property, specialist shop, everyday life, regional identity, changing land use, and bricks-and-mortar retail. For current editorial use, commercial rents and consumer spending provide additional context, especially through the contribution of independents to distinctive high streets. Future viewers can use this scene from Great Britain, UK to compare lettering, decoration and surface detail with whatever follows after conservation work. Other useful contextual ideas include archival record, high-street commerce, documentary photography, place identity, public realm, independent retail, changing streetscape, and town-centre trading. Details involving service and recycling make the image more specific than a generic view and strengthen its local or historical value. Around Great Britain, UK, apparently routine details can become historically useful once businesses close, buildings change use or familiar features disappear. Its period value extends to commercial rents and how commercial property costs affect small retailers within the real-world context of Great Britain, UK. The location additionally provides evidence of commercial rents and the resilience of specialist shops in an online retail economy within the specific setting of Great Britain, UK. A further contemporary connection is store closures and the resilience of specialist shops in an online retail economy as part of the longer story of Great Britain, UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy R9GT5N - More than 35,000 homes and 600 businesses in Scotland have installed solar PV panels, but only because of lavish government subsidies. Now that these subsidies are being discontinued the question becomes whether solar PV in Scotland can stand on its own two feet. The data from operating PV arrays presented in this post show that the answer is a resounding no . With capacity factors of only 8-9% and seasonal generation ranges exceeding a factor of twelve, Scotland is in fact one of the worst places in Europe for solar, despite what its supporters claim.
Articles telling us what a great country Scotland is for solar PV continue to appear. The latest was this one from PV Magazine, linked to in Blowout Week 242. It had this to say:
Solar power is the fastest growing energy technology in the world, and works exceptionally well even in the U.K.'s northern location and climate ¦
According to the BBC solar energy works so exceptionally well at high latitudes that it could power all Scottish electricity supplies. The BBC even provided supporting evidence:
Data from WeatherEnergy showed that sunshine in Edinburgh in April (2015) generated more electricity than is used in an average home “ a total of 113%. In Aberdeen the figure was 111%, 106% in Glasgow and 104% in Inverness.
But while Scotland's solar potential, which according to Herald Scotland is staggering ¦.
Rooftop solar provides an exceptionally cost-effective, popular, community-based solution with the potential for a staggering 40GW of rooftop capacity across Scotland.
¦. it's not being realized because Scottish solar is being unfairly punished :
Solar deployment on Scottish rooftops lags far behind both national and European deployment. One of the reasons for this is the particularly harsh tax treatment of rooftop solar on Scottish businesses and public sector buildings, including schools and hospitals.

The leading landlord is working in partnership with British Gas on the landmark project, which is part funded by the national Community Energy Savings Programme (CESP). A series of internal and external work will take place as part of the radical retrofit.
Chameleon boards that change colour depending on the time of day, view point and exposure to sunlight will be fitted down two aspects of the high rise block, which looms large on a hill in the Butts. As well as introducing colour and interest to the building, the boards will provide 406 square metres of insulation.
248 photo voltaic panels will be fixed to a south facing external wall to harness solar power and generate electricity for the communal lighting and lifts. Heat will be extracted from the ground and pumped into Austin House to power a new heating and hot water system. This will replace the inefficient electric storage heaters to give residents more control over the temperature of their flat and the water they use.
