Mr. Eadie
asked the Secretary of State for Energy what is the current projected figure for generating electricity from wave power as generated by the Salter Duck.
Mr. David Hunt
My Department considers that there is a low probability of any design for large scale wave power generation, including the Salter Duck, achieving a cost of energy below 9p/kWh (1984 money values).
Details of the cost assessment are given in ETSU R26, Wave Energy, which is deposited in the Library of the House.
