§ Mr. Wingfield Digbyasked the Minister of Power what would be the cost of electricity from the last nuclear power station of the first programme, assuming a life of 25 years instead of 20; and how this would compare with the cost from the latest conventional power stations.
§ Mr. Frederick LeeThe generating cost at Wylfa would be about 0.63d. per kilowatt hour. The cost at conventional 43W stations operating at high load factor to be commissioned about the same time will be between 0.5d. to 0.6d. per kilowatt hour depending on their location and the fuel used.
