Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Energy Bill.
Energy Bill
When we are discussing an investment designed to achieve a certain goal, it is easy enough to say that it is impossible to produce any examples of anyone anywhere in the world who has achieved that goal. The truth is, however, that there are dozens of capture projects—some relating to coal, some to gas, and some to other industrial processes—dozens of storage projects, and hundreds of miles of pipeline. All the individual technologies are being developed. Of course it is true that we have not yet achieved the goal for which everyone is aiming—that is rather self-evident—but every other Government in the world have provided much more encouragement, which is why those projects are all up and running.
