Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 May 2025

Debate

Energy Grid Resilience

Contribution

Yes, my Lords, we are. It is a very relevant point. Clearly, we are looking for a balanced energy mix for the future. We see nuclear as being an essential baseload. We will have renewables, but we are looking at hydro storage, as the noble Lord reflected in his own question. The whole point is that we will have a balanced system, but one that is heavily decarbonised. That is exactly the aim of what we seek to do.
