Energy Bill

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Lord for raising this important matter. Noble Lords will know that earlier this year my department announced that £10 million will be made available for the construction of new commercial-scale anaerobic digestion plant, and we have proposed doubling the amount of support that it has received under the reformed renewables obligation.
