Labour puzzled by ‘meaningless announcement’ on gas
There is “no disagreement” between Labour and the government over the need for new gas fired power stations, the shadow energy minister has said, suggesting that ministers have been seeking to “conjure a culture war” out of the issue. In a snap parliamentary debate on the REMA, shadow energy minister Alan Whitehead said he was a “little puzzled” by the announcement, given that the Committee on Climate Change and “all credible energy experts” have said a small residual of unabated gas plant is needed over the medium term and is consistent with a fully decarbonised power system.
