Proceeding contribution from Philip Hollobone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 17 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill 2005-06.

As amended in the Standing Committee, further considered.

I paid careful attention to my hon. Friend the Member for Bexhill and Battle (Gregory Barker), who helpfully clarified the fact that the consumption of a typical household would require a generating capacity of 10KW. A plant with a generating capacity of 20 MWe could therefore provide enough power for 2,000 houses.
