Emissions Performance Standard

EDM number 299 in 2008-09, proposed by Tim Yeo on 16/12/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Climate change, Energy and Environmental protection.

That this House believes that, in light of the strong recommendation made by the Climate Change Committee that the power sector should be almost fully decarbonised by 2030, and its warning of the potential dangers of a purely market-led approach leading to carbon lock in, the Government should bring forward early legislation to introduce a greenhouse gas emissions performance standard to apply to all new power generation capacity.

This motion has been signed by a total of 222 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
