Talk:Maentwrog

The UK Atomic Energy Authority built a nuclear power station in Maentwrog in 1947
According to the article on the UKAEA, the organisation wasn't founded until 1954. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.198.108.162 (talk) 14:00, 26 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I originally started that section in 2007 but I wrote this
 * The Department of Atomic Energy built a station in Maentwrog in 1947, possibly investigating sites for the production of heavy water.
 * Someone has altered this so it is now completely inaccurate. It was not a "nuclear power station" and the name was not UKAEA.--jmb (talk) 19:13, 26 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Looking again, I think someone is getting confused with the nuclear power station at Trawsfynydd which is nothing to do with the tests done in 1947. I have reverted to the original text.  --jmb (talk) 19:18, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Why so little on the Hydro Electric Power Station.
This Daily Post article http://www.dailypost.co.uk/news/north-wales-news/hydro-electric-power-stations-north-wales-2656804 mentions that the Hydro Plant helps pay for nuclear decommissioning. Also that the capacity of the lake to produce hydro power was reduced to allow the nuclear plant access to some water for cooling. Surely the Maentwrog Hydro Plant deserves it's own page let alone a section in this article. 88.105.212.84 (talk) 08:47, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
