HC Deb 15 November 1982 vol 32 cc43-4W
24. Mr. Hooley

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will encourage the retention of older power stations which could be used for combined heat and power systems.

Mr. Mellor

Our recent feasibility study of combined heat and power schemes was carried out with the co-operation of the electricity supply industry, and included assessing selected power station sites. The CEGB has retained sites specifically because of the study.
