HC Deb 08 March 1990 vol 168 c779W
Mr. Ieuan Wyn Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what is the total in megawatts capacity of renewable sources of energy, under the non-fossil fuel obligation.

Mr. Baldry

Bids from sponsors of renewables-sourced generating projects for contracting under the non-fossil fuel obligation amount to between 1 and 2 GW of capacity. However, the level of the obligation in respect of renewables will not be determined until it is clear, in the light of consultations, how many of these projects are ready to go forward.
