§ Mr. Skeetasked the Secretary of State for Energy when he expects fluidised bed combustion systems will be able to make an impact on the coal market in relation to (a)industrial or commercial sales and (b) power stations.
§ Mr. John MooreThe impact of fluidised bed combustion on industrial coal markets will be felt when the present prototype programme has encouraged industrialists to see real benefit in commercial fluidised bed combustion systems, and the manufacturers of these systems to enter series production.
The use of the technology in power generation will be largely dependent upon the outcome of the experimental work at the LEA facility at Grimethorpe in Yorkshire.
