Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, how much carbon dioxide is saved per pound of CfD strike price offered for (a) advanced conversion technologies, (b) anaerobic digestion, (c) biomass conversion, (d) dedicated biomass (with chp), (e) energy from waste (with chp), (f) geothermal, (g) hydro, (h) landfill gas, (i) offshore wind, (j) onshore wind, (k) sewage gas, (l) large solar photo-voltaic (m) tidal stream and (n) wave.

The amount of carbon saved per MWh of renewable generation will depend upon what is assumed about the mix of technologies displaced, which is uncertain. In order to determine the carbon saved per pound of support, CfD strike prices should also be adjusted for wholesale electricity prices.
