Energy: Gas Storage

Lord Skelmersdale Excerpts

Thursday 28th November 2013 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Verma]

My Lords, the point of intervention is where we try to ensure that low-carbon generation gets the support to be able to supply energy at a cost that will be affordable to consumers. That is about ensuring energy security and cleaner energy, but also affordability.

[Lord Skelmersdale (Con)]

My Lords, I welcome the four new gas storage facilities that my noble friend spoke of in her original Answer. However, can she tell me when the first one was started?

[Baroness Verma]

My Lords, my noble friend asks a question about the date that I cannot answer exactly. However, I will write to my noble friend on that and put a copy in the Library.
