Baglan Power Station is just the chimney stack left now. Turbine Hall has been pulled down after being gutted by arson. Didn't even generate for 20 years, and now the land will probably be used for an expanded solar farm.

Wonder if vampire squid Macquarie burnt their fingers on this one.

yes. met with them last month, they seem very keen to progress. Loss leader for them really to avoid the penalties (as are all the INTOG projects)

At least they are local to some 'deep offshore' types up there and vessel types for the mooring systems etc

Suspect Macquarie loaded it with debt and ramped the price, so much so customers found supply elsewhere.
