This project is the most important fiancial issue since the building of our railway system, which never turned a profit and helped bankrupt our country. It therefore requires full investigations as you suggest. For my part, as a engineer I worked with high voltage design distribution systems with Nfld Hydro, and following that, worked decades with efficient heating systems. I submitted to the PUB that efficient heating for residential can reverse our demand and at a cost about one quarter of Muskrat Falls, and stabilize costs with little increase. That with residential and small commercial there is the potential to reduce 600MW of peak loading. These figures have not been been critized, just ignored.I agree that the Telegram has provided a lot of coverage on this, but more needs to be done. My 2000 word letter to the Telegram about Feb was not published because, according to Russell, it was too long. I may update and shorten it and try again.I think it important that other engineers should be given a chance to comment on my views.
