Oral answer to question provided on Thursday, 26 January 2012 in the House of Commons, by Chris Huhne (Liberal Democrat), Department of Energy and Climate Change.
Topical Questions
- Answer
-
I will happily come back to my hon. Friend on wind turbines, but just because someone falls off a ladder does not mean that the House jumps to abolish ladders. In a similar sense, the operation of wind turbines, particularly those that are onshore, which are most economic, provides an increasingly important contribution to our energy needs, which is home-grown and not likely to be buffeted by events in the middle east.
This is an answer to the Topical question asked on Thursday, 26 January 2012 by Philip Davies (Conservative).
- Question
- Further to the question from my hon. Friend the Member for Rugby (Mark Pawsey), what estimate has the Secretary of State made of the number of wind turbines that stopped working at some point during the year, and how many of those stopped working due to too little wind and how many of them stopped working because of too much wind?
