Viscount Hanworth (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 9 January 2025

Debate

Long-duration Energy Storage (Science and Technology Committee Report)

Contribution

I shall be fairly brief. One recommendation, which I strongly support, proposes that small advanced modular reactors should be deployed to provide heat and power for both domestic and industrial users. The inherent safety of fourth-generation nuclear technologies will allow the reactors to be located near the industrial users, thereby reducing demands.
