HC Deb 08 May 1990 vol 172 c20W
Mr. Steinberg

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what is the estimated contribution to power generation in the 1990s of(a) wind power, (b) tidal power, (c) estuary barrages and (d) geothermal power.

Mr. Peter Morrison

Renewable energy technologies are at an early stage of development and there is great uncertainty about future projections. No estimates are available for the 1990s. Longer term estimates for 2025 have been published in Energy Paper 55, copies of which are in the Library of the House.
