Hunter will profit from the data centres he advocates for through his family office investment vehicle West Coast Capital
Sir Tom Hunter
@SirTomHunterSep 23
Scotland's wind farms are routinely paid to stop generating, because the grid can't move the power south. I was shocked when I heard this from Greg Jackson at our Founders Conference.    This abundance of energy makes Scotland a strong candidate for data centres. But we need the infrastructure to make it happen.

Maybe this would be more credible if any time at all had elapsed after 2014 before the cries for indyref2 went up. It was almost immediate. We don’t want to give you another one because you would behave in exactly the duplicitous way and we are once bitten and therefore shy.
