Energy Bill

Proceeding contribution from Charles Hendry (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 4 December 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Energy Bill.

Should we not learn the lesson of the Longannet experience? In that instance, we discovered that the cost of trying to retrofit carbon capture and storage technology to a very old power station that needed many millions of pounds of new investment made it uninvestable. Surely, it is likely that a new plant will be fitted with carbon capture and storage, rather than an old plant’s being retrofitted.
