HC Deb 05 December 1975 vol 901 cc421-2W
Mr. Banks

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will set out current working projects financed by Government for the utilisation of wind, sea, sun and water for energy production.

Mr. Eadie

I am not aware of any current working projects financed by the Government for the utilisation of wind, sea, sun and water for energy production. A number of experimental projects in these fields are sponsored by my Department and by other relevant Government Departments. Working projects in operation such as the production of hydroelectric power are financed by the power industries.
