Combined Heat And Power

EDM number 75 in 2007-08, proposed by Gregory Barker on 06/11/2007.
Categorised under the topics of Climate change, Energy, Energy conservation and Renewable energy.

That this House recognises that combined heat and power (CHP) is one of the most cost-effective ways of reducing UK carbon emissions, especially in the industrial sector, and that it enhances security of supply, boosts competitiveness and helps tackle fuel poverty; regrets the Government's disappointing records on attaining its target of 10 GW generated through CHP by 2010 and 15 per cent. of electricity for Government departments to be sourced from CHP by 2010; remains concerned that, despite the Conservative Government setting a target in 1990 of four GW being achieved by 2000, there has been a marked reduction in the rate of CHP installation since 1997; and urges the Government to honour its 2010 target, and set a further 2020 target, for energy generated through combined heat and power, and to develop the policies to meet it.

This motion has been signed by a total of 33 MPs.
