Proceeding contribution from Lord Berkeley (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 11 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on Draft National Policy Statement for Fossil Fuel Electricity Generating Infrastructure (EN-2).
Draft National Policy Statement for Fossil Fuel Electricity Generating Infrastructure (EN-2)
I am so sorry, that is what I meant. Cement is a heavy user of carbon dioxide and thus a heavy polluter; we know no other way of making it. If you transport it by rail or water rather than road, though, you are saving about 25 per cent of the total carbon dioxide used. The transport for the construction phases of these very varied pieces of generating capacity is very important.
