[edit] MWth and MWe

This is a case where the strict usage SI units differs from usage in the electricty industry. As a worker in the UK electricity industry (and having also worked in the North American electricity industry, I recognise MWth and MWe, whilst Wth and MWe are alien to me. --Stewart (talk) 08:57, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] It is the most powerful generating station in Scotland
This is not the case, Peterhead Power Station has a larger installed capacity. Peterhead cannot run at full capacity due to grid restrictions but it still has far more generating capacity. 161.12.7.4 (talk) 08:33, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Cooling Towers
"Like all other power stations in Scotland it lacks cooling towers, relying instead on river water as a coolant." This is incorrect, I know of at least 1 station (Fife Power Station near Ballingry) which has cooling towers (it is not near a river) so I have changed the word "all" to "most". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.12.7.4 (talk) 08:35, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
