HC Deb 27 February 1986 vol 92 c631W
Mr. Speller

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will make it his policy to support with research grants the installation of multiple small wind energy collectors as well as of the single large collectors; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. David Hunt

Small wind turbines are now commercially available and it is therefore not appropriate for my Department to contribute towards the installation costs of such "wind farms". Proposals for the monitoring of wind farms would be considered sympathetically.
