 World's largest council house runs on hydro - Alanovich

What's going on here?

If this hydro scheme is providing power at below normal costs, surely the Queen is the last person who should be benefiting and it should be going to poor households in the area (yes, there are plenty)? If it costs more to produce electricity than normal providers, what's the point?

The article doesn't say, so is this just another case of the BBC's relentless publication of royal stories just to keep them in the headlines?

A classic example of people with money accumulate more wealth.

It must be ok for us plebs to just watch and pay through the nose for energy prices.
