Proceeding contribution from Lord Marland (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 31 October 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Energy: Feed-in Tariffs.
Energy: Feed-in Tariffs
The noble Baroness is completely right. The modelling was incorrect. We inherited it and we have sought to get it right. As I asked earlier when I talked about government priorities, do we think that this is a game changer in electricity supply and that it is in the best interests of the consumer? The answer from Consumer Focus is no. As regards the game change in the electricity supply of 0.1 per cent, even if every house had them the figure would get to only 0.3 per cent. Therefore, this goes down the list of priorities. I am afraid that it is not a government priority, given the massive problem that we will have for electricity in the 2020s.
