Thirty students from Exeter are on the Isle of Man to find out whether it could lead the world in renewable energy.
They are due in Strand Street, Douglas at lunchtime to conduct research about alternative energy sources as part of their university courses.

Carol Warwick-Evans says the location may be different but the survey is the same:
