Renewable Heat

EDM number 712 in 2010-12, proposed by Andrew George on 09/09/2010.
Categorised under the topics of Asia and Incomes and poverty.

That this House welcomes the Tariff Coalition's Half the Problem campaign, aimed at raising the share of UK heat energy that comes from renewable sources; recognises that 47 per cent. of current UK carbon emissions, and 49 per cent. of energy consumption, come from non-renewable heat energy; notes that the UK delivers a lower proportion of its heating needs from renewable sources than any other country in Europe, apart from Malta; further recognises that stop-start grant schemes have created an insecure investment climate within the UK, and that current political uncertainty is seriously undermining investment in the renewable heat sector; endorses the Government's commitment to bring in a renewable heat tariff by April 2011, to deliver 12 per cent. of UK heat from renewable sources by 2020; further recognises the benefits this will bring to UK jobs and energy security as well as to woodland biodiversity, waste management and climate change targets; and calls on the Chancellor of the Exchequer to make sure that these pledges are givenpriority in the October Spending Review.

This motion has been signed by a total of 90 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
