Green group claims windfarm 'would have paid for itself already'

A green campaigning group says a proposed windfarm in Colby would have paid for itself if it had been built two years ago.

Sustain: Isle of Man took to Facebook after examining Manx Utilities accounts for the past two years.

It says the Earystane site would already have saved £40 million in fuel costs to provide a third of the Island's energy.

And it claims Manx Utilities would be £10 million richer.

The energy provider identified Earystane as a windfarm site last year.
