HC Deb 28 April 1975 vol 891 cc29-30W
Mr. Rost

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what is the current expenditure budget on energy conservation technology by the support unit at Harwell; and what proportion is being allocated on research and development into utilisation of reject heat by Central Electricity Generating Board power stations.

Mr. Eadie

Expenditure during 1974–75 on energy conservation technology was £88,000, and for 1975–76 this is expected to double. No part of this expenditure is allocated to research and development into utilisation of reject heat; however, a small part of the unit's assessment work does relate to this subject.
