Interactive Map of Renewable and Alternative Energy Projects in the UK - 1 views

Phil Slade on 22 Jan 10"The renewable energy map has been developed to fill what seems to be a gap in information about the major renewable energy schemes in the UK. Though there are a number of lists and project details available, these are often developed to indicate a point in time or a specific technology. The BWEA is an example of the latter, an excellent resource but specifically focused on wind. The data that has been gathered for the renewables map has invariably come from a wide range of web resources, in all cases these will be referenced, usually by a link to that information. Locations are either taken from existing data, usually from planning applications, or by painstakingly identifying the location on the ground using online maps. There are of course errors (such as landfill's at sea), though these are corrected as soon as they are identified."
