HC Deb 11 November 1991 vol 198 c359W
24. Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what new initiatives he plans to increase the volume of energy generated by renewables.

Mr. Moynihan

The second Renewables Order laid before the House on 5 November has resulted in a very substantial increase of 472 MW of capacity being contracted with the regional electricity companies. I am currently reviewing our renewable energy strategy and a revised forward plan is expected in spring 1992.
