HC Deb 13 June 1956 vol 554 cc28-9W
46. Mr. Warbey

asked the Lord Privy Seal the main components of the total cost of approximately 0.6 pence per kilowatt hour which the Atomic Energy Authority estimates to be the probable net cost of electricity generated by the early nuclear power stations and what is the selling price of the plutonium byproduct assumed for the purpose of this estimate.

Mr. R. A. Butler

I believe the hon. Member has seen the paper presented at Geneva last Agust which gives the detailed figures about which he asks. Although some of the figures used in building up the estimate have altered one way or the other, it remains the best estimate that can be given.
