DEBATE THE FUTURE OF WADEBRIDGE

Energy black hole gets deeper

On reading the Sainsburys energy statement in more detail, it is apparent that they have not included what they call 'process loads' in their final energy consumption figure. When you add in the energy used for refrigeration and the bakery, the figure doubles to 3500 MWh per year. This equates to about 40% of the energy used by all the homes in Wadebridge. Think about what that means if you add in the energy used by Tesco, including their expansion plans, and the proposed Morrisons (who, to my knowledge, have not supplied an energy statement).
