HC Deb 12 April 1983 vol 40 cc361-2W
Mr. Iain Mills

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will increase his grant-aid support to private energy generating projects.

Mr. John Moore

I have no plans for new grant-aid schemes for private energy generating projects. In some circumstances aid may be available from the energy conservation demonstration project scheme, the coal firing scheme, or the European Economic Community demonstration scheme for energy saving projects. My Department is always glad to learn of prospective proposals for assistance.
