HC Deb 26 November 1973 vol 865 c4W
32. Mr. Scott-Hopkins

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what is the price differential of electricity generating costs in pence per kilowatt at the latest convenient date, between (i) a modern coal-fired station on a coalfield, (ii) a modern coal-fired station remote from a coalfield, without taking into account the coal subsidy, (iii) a modern oil-fired station with oil by pipeline or berthing facilities for large tankers, and (iv) a modern nuclear-powered station.

Mr. Emery

There are so many variable factors in providing this information that I am asking the Chairman of the Central Electricity Generating Board to write to my hon. Friend.
