Not sure if that peak is Cader Idris Chris,but its pretty close.Trawsfynedd has a nuclear power station,as its got the lake for cooling.Possibly a hydro system as well.Some of the North Wales members would have more info.
Cheers Dave.

You are spot on Harry,just had a look on Wikipedia.
The village is close to Llyn Trawsfynydd, a large man-made reservoir which was originally built, between 1924 and 1928, to supply water for Maentwrog hydro-electric power station.
Cheers Dave.
