Energy Costs for Businesses

Debate between Lord Hunt of Kings Heath and Lord Rooker

Tuesday 17th December 2024 Lords Chamber

[Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (Lab)]

My Lords, I always enjoy the noble Lord’s interventions. I recognise that there is a potential in tidal power, and the noble Lord, Lord Alton, is—can I say—badgering me on this and has had a debate already in the Great British Energy Bill about its potential. At this stage, we remain open to discussions about how that can be taken forward.

[Lord Rooker (Lab)]

Could I ask my noble friend: is fusion energy still 20 years away, as it was 20 years ago?

[Noble Lords]

Oh!
