HC Deb 26 July 1978 vol 954 cc794-5W
Mr. Richard Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what is the total amount of money received by the Central Electricity Generating Board as a result of the consumption of electricity for domestic purposes.

Dr. John Cunningham

The CEGB's total revenue from sales of electricity to the 12 area boards reached £3,025 million in 1976–77. Domestic consumers are supplied by the area boards not the CEGB; sales to such consumers by the Area Boards accounted for 43.6 per cent. of their total revenues in the same year.
