To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what changes in unit payments for electricity have resulted from the switch by his Department to purchasing renewable energy which is exempt from the Climate Change Levy. [96480]
Mr. Stephen Twigg
In 2001–02 my Department purchased 10 per cent. of its electricity from renewable sources which were exempt from the Climate Change Levy. The overall bill was 0.06 per cent. higher than if no renewable electricity had been purchased.
