Comments on: Solar Farm Should Be Operational In 2019 https://bernews.com/2018/06/solar-farm-should-be-operational-in-2019/ Bermuda's #1 source for 24/7 breaking news, photos & videos Mon, 06 Apr 2026 18:30:04 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.7.5 By: Kathy https://bernews.com/2018/06/solar-farm-should-be-operational-in-2019/#comment-4637653 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 09:23:07 +0000 http://bernews.com/?p=764936#comment-4637653 It is really incredible that every single opinion in this article is NEGATIVE! This project represents the culmination of many Governments and many years of trying to get some kind of large renewable energy project off the ground in Bermuda. We should be very pleased that a small portion of our energy costs are now locked in at a fixed rate that is much cheaper than the cost of fuel we are paying now. Well done Minister Roban. I can’t wait to see what other successes you bring to Bermuda in the form of renewable solutions for Bermuda. Your passion for RE is shining through. Thank you and to all that made this project happen.

I want to. See the full analysis on this deal and an independent review.

The asset will be 20 million, but what is the price we pay in total. What restrictions and covenant are there on the land.

Something here stinks, where is the transparency?

Obviously that’s more important cause it came with a photo op.
People are a joke and not even the premier commenting on it.

Can guarantee that these Canadians will DOUBLE their rate from $0.103/kilowatt hour within 2 years of opening!!

Bermuda is truly screwed with such numpty’s running the show.
