We had a strong response for last wee’k poll, with 1035 respondents. Of these, the largest group, 50 per cent, chose not to pick one of our suggested options: judging from comments, this was because they were all perceived to be too negative (which wasn’t the intention). Backing up this conclusion, the largest response to a suggested option was 36 per cent for all contributions to energy demand being significant, no matter how small their proportion of total demand; 9 per cent said that such schemes need energy storage back-up to bank power generated during tides at low demand periods. All other options attracted support below 5 per cent of the total.
