Hi Rajvee,

I wrote the following article that appeared in St.Maarten’s Daily Herald newspaper
http://www.thedailyherald.com/opinion/letters-to-the-editor/18265-the-winds-of-change–revisited.html

Which prompted their editor to write this editorial about my article.
http://www.thedailyherald.com/editorial/32-editorial/18285-editorial-sustainable.html

Since you seem to be very much in the know about Curaçao’s wind farm and its history, I was wondering if you might be willing to respond to his editorial and fill him in on what you know about the wind farm, its history and the future plans for it? They can be reached at Editor(editorial@thedailyherald.com)

Thanks,
Andy

Was on your island for vacation and noticed windmills. when new windmills are up what percentage of island’s total energy needs will come from them ?

also to store energy one can pump water up a hill and when energy is needed release the water and have water fall to drive turbines. ( cheap form of battery )

Hi Dinesh, Thank you. I will definitely pass by some time soon and perhaps I can write an article about your company.

green energy is of course very important that is why we have to concentrate on using hydrogen and alternative energy sources*”`

Hi,
We are a Solar panel manufacturing company. We feel that our modules are highly efficient compared to what is currently available in the market. We are looking to appoint a dealer in Curacao, if you can recommend and any of you interested, let us know. You can visit our website for more details at http://www.sonalisolar.com.

Wind farms are very nice and they are a great alternative to large coal or oil plants that take up much more space than a wind farm, not to mention create large amounts of waste and pollution. Energy conservation should be pushed simultaneously.

The wind farms are barely operating and will be down during replacement since they have to be removed completely.

@Dinesh I would like to check out your products since I am having a very difficult time finding energy efficient bulbs that actually last more than one year. This makes me very frustrated since there is no way to dispose of such bulbs in Curacao. Do you know if there is such a place?

You can also put them in the ocean. And the north side of Curacao isn’t really populated. Now it’s is used for people dumping garbage (not everywhere, but near the windmill park now they do), really terrible. So a windmill park can only make it look better. I also think it looks pretty good.

wind farms are great but they also take up a large land area’**

are the wind mills active today or are they down while the
replacement activity is underway.
