* Homes in Guyana use less electricity than homes in the US---but here in the US---1 MW can supply the needs of 1000 homes----25 MW will supply the needs of 25K homes.

* Anyway, Amaila if ever developed is expected to produce 165 MW of electricity----and will cost nearly 1 billion.

* The Hope Beach wind warm will produce 25MW and will cost only 42 million.

* Do the math---looks like wind cheaper than hydro.

* By the way, as much as I support hydro---that Amaila falls project proposed by Sithe Global would have ripped off Guyana.

* Amalia was not meant for Northern Brazil.

* Take a look at this image:

* There will be 2 sub-stations---one in Linden and the next in Georgetown----connected by the transmission lines.


RE: THE HYDRO THAT WILL BENEFIT BRAZIL

* There is a Brazillian consortium that is interested in constructing a hydro project in the Mazaruni region.

* They are planning on spending 45 million US on a prefeasibility and then feasibility studies.

* But there have been some delays in getting the studies started.

See link:

* Now, if that hydro in mazaruni ever gets developed by the Brazilians---that would be HUGE.
