Ed Miliband

Labour — Doncaster North

Speaking in the House of Commons on 6 January 2026

Debate

Gas-fired Power Stations

Contribution

My hon. Friend is right. The figures that came out from NESO over Christmas show that we had extra renewable power in 2025 equivalent to powering 2 million homes; that is 2 million homes that will not be powered by imported gas. That gives us the price stability that we never had under the previous Government. The fundamental lesson at a time of geopolitical instability is that home-grown clean power is what gives us the certainty we need.
