Derrybrien decommissioning

Sir, – I understand the ESB is going to decommission the Derrybrien wind farm. 70 turbines producing gold dust electricity not reliant on Putin’s gas.

Yes, thousands of tonnes of Galway peat cannot be put back, but that is spilt milk.

Take the machines from the ESB. Use the income to plant trees and build a greenway across my beautiful south Galway countryside.

Keep ’em spinning.
