THE Navitus wind farm decision is still blowing hot and cold but personally I feel that it should be a “non starter” in favour of less-obtrusive solar panels.

With the local coastline predominantly south-facing, surely Navitus would be able to mount solar panels on the side of our cliffs from Hengistbury Head all along our World Heritage Jurassic Coast as far as Lulworth Cove.

This would appease the turbine objectors and still generate loads of lovely loot, erm, electricity, without creating the monstrous offshore eyesore currently proposed.

Whilst providing much needed jobs for local window cleaners, enterprising beach hut owners could rig up their TV and kettles and make hot showers available for surfers.
