Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 March 2026

Debate

Grid Capacity: West London

Contribution

I thank the Minister for that response. As well as grid capacity for much-needed new homes and infrastructure such as Hillingdon hospital, capacity is needed in west London for the large number of data centres being proposed at a regional level. What actions are being taken to strategically co-ordinate those demands and, crucially, to secure local benefits such as jobs and heat capture to lower household bills? Those things are present in the local planning system in Hillingdon, but are not being secured.
