A 1,000 km 2 (390 sq mi), 200,000 MW solar farm in Scotland, where the insolation is about 900 kWh/mÂ²/yr would provide 180,000 GWh per year, equal to all of Scotland's energy demand.he government expects Britain to have 22 gigawatts of installed solar power capacity by 2020. The first large solar farm in the United Kingdom, a 32 MW solar farm, began construction in November 2012.

A shadoof is a mechanical irrigation tool that was first developed in a part of western Asia called the Fertile Crescent more than 4,000 years ago. It is still used to draw water in many parts of the world that do not have ready access to electric water pumps. This tool is also known as a shaduf, dhenkli, picottah, swape or counterpoise-lift. In many ways, a shadoof resembles a seesaw. A strong pole, often made from wood or bamboo, is suspended across an upright structure so that the fulcrum sits roughly one-fifth of the way down its length.
