HC Deb 20 July 1989 vol 157 c346W
Mr. Allen

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the eight dirtiest coal-fired power stations in the United Kingdom.

Mrs. Virginia Bottomley

Power station operations vary greatly in their load factor throughout the year, depending upon demand from the grid system, and also in their coal supply pattern. It is not possible to categorise them uniquely in terms of pollution.
