Why not build the airport?...Ladies and Gentlemen:<br /> <br />Why not build the airport?<br /> <br />I know of a company that would be happy to set up a Biofuels Project in St Helena and produce from that all the fuel needed for the air transport needed for any aircraft that would use an airport there as well as for all the fuel needs on the island for transport as well as to export from St Helena to South Africa. <br /> <br />It is a real development and one which from an investment point of view would survive completely without ''subsidies'' from the UK Government.<br /> <br />Such a development project would cost around €195 million but with a production of over 140 million litres of the reneable fuel Ethanol and the further production of 60 million litres of Butanol being produced each year from a combination of sources of organic material that could be grown both on and around St Helena is one which would create over 170 to 200permanent jobs.<br /> <br />It would however need to have an off-take for the fuels and an airport would be ideal for the Butanol and in additional as well as temporary storage for that fuel it would also need provision to store Ethanol for export to Africa or the EU.<br /> <br />Such a project will take two years to build and need support from the Islanders.<br /> <br />If you then add to it an airport for tourists what else could you not consider.<br /> <br />How can such an issue be ignored in St Helena.<br /> <br />Go for it make your position known Saints.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13473787337897643065noreply@blogger.com
