HC Deb 30 November 1993 vol 233 c503W
Mr. Redmond

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what percentage of the Government subsidy paid to developers of wind turbine farms is for decommissioning; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Eggar

I have been asked to reply.

The extent to which the price paid by the regional electricity companies, for electricity supplied under a contract entered into by them under the non-fossil fuel obligation, contributes to the particular generator's capital, operating or decommissioning costs, is a commercial matter for the generator.
