Proceeding contribution from Lord Crickhowell (Conservative) 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 sorry to interrupt the Minister again, but he expressed confidence that the 2020 target for electricity energy to be supplied by renewables would be met. In my speech in the energy debate of October 2005, I expressed doubt that the target of 10 per cent of electricity supplied from renewable sources by 2010 would be met. What percentage has been achieved? Is it not only about 2 or 3 per cent?
