I picchi interrompono la corrente a Sixmilebridge, nella contea di Clare

Someone working for ESB network is calling them Woodfluckers right now.

It’s mighty inconvenient for those affected.

*However* it’s chaotic funny.

So I’ll laugh for a moment & go about my day, with my electricity.

So woodpeckers only live in this specific part of the country? And they search for insects and food in esb poles that are all soaked in creasote? As opposed to actual trees where woodpeckers generally find there food.
I’ve lived in a rural area surrounded by woodland and I have only ever heard a woodpecker once in my life.

This sounds a lot more to me like a bit of a misdirection from the fact that we are barely have the energy output to meet the demands on our grid. 

Have rte ever put out a story about how much strain data centers put on our grid? 

The people of Sixmilebridge should tell the government there is a data centre looking to set up in the town and the poor woodpeckers won’t stand a chance.


They are also attracted to the weak sounds of insects inside the wood…. which is also aproblem in windy ireland as our external wall insulation rustles a bit under the render on windy days…. They do damage it.
