Energy Security Strategy — [Geraint Davies in the Chair] ( 5 Jul 2022)

John Penrose: ...largest source of potential tidal power. He is right, of course, about the up-front costs being significant and the lifetime costs being lower. However, even factoring that in, the total lifetime levelised costs of tidal power are, from all the figures I have seen, dramatically higher than anything else out there. Has the hon. Gentleman seen figures that I have not?

Education: Philosophy - Question ( 1 Nov 2022)

Baroness O'Neill of Bengarve: .... When I joined your Lordships’ House there were four of us, but the others are no longer with us. So much for the interest. My question is: does the Minister think that what we might call the A-levelisation of philosophy teaching in schools has, on balance, been beneficial, or not?

COP 27: Commitments - Motion to Take Note (24 Nov 2022)

Baroness Walmsley: ...per kilowatt than other zero-carbon methods, but I am grateful for an excellent briefing from the catapult on offshore renewable energy, outlining research on what support is needed to reduce the levelised cost of energy—LCOE—produced from the tide and showing how it could, with the right support, be cheaper than nuclear by 2035. It is no accident that both solar and offshore wind have...

Marine Renewables: Government Support — [Mr Philip Hollobone in the Chair] ( 7 Dec 2022)

Alan Brown: ...given the right Government backing. The 40 MW allocation in AR4 will be delivered at £178 per MWh, which is already 15% below the administrative strike price and represents a 40% reduction in the levelised cost of energy since 2016. As we have heard, it could go as low as £78 per MWh by 2035 and below £50 per MWh by 2050. However, such cost reductions are possible only with continued...

Written Answers — Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy: Wind Power: Costs (22 Dec 2022)

Graham Stuart: Currently the Government does not model degradation of wind turbine output nor changes in operating costs with time, but instead uses lifetime average values to calculate mean levelised cost of electricity.[1] [1]https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/energy-generati on-cost-projections

Written Answers — Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy: Energy: Prices (26 Jan 2023)

Lord Callanan: The BEIS "Electricity Generation Costs" report shows that on a levelised cost basis, wind and solar are amongst the cheapest forms of electricity generation in the UK. More low-cost renewables like wind and solar will ensure Britain is less affected by fluctuations in volatile global gas prices. BEIS’s "Modelling 2050 – electricity system analysis" also shows that low-cost future...

Energy Security and Net Zero: Solar Power (28 Feb 2023)

Graham Stuart: The planning system is designed to seek that balance with the need to secure a clean, green energy system. It is worth noting that ground-mounted solar has probably the lowest levelised cost of any form of energy in this country. The Government have clarified the definition of “best and most versatile” agricultural land as constituting lands in grades 1, 2 and 3a, and we do everything we...

Written Answers — Department for Energy Security and Net Zero: Nuclear Power and Renewable Energy (10 May 2023)

Lord Callanan: Levelised Costs of Electricity for generation technologies are reported in the Generation Costs Report. They compare the lifetime costs for a plant (construction, operating, and decommissioning costs) against the plant's expected lifetime generation. They do not consider site specific benefits or costs. In 2010, the Government published a review of tidal barrages or lagoons in the Severn...

Nuclear Energy - Motion to Take Note ( 7 Sep 2023)

Lord Ravensdale: ...in constructing such a system, using technology that has not yet been demonstrated at scale, would be extremely challenging. The cost per megawatt hour of that system would be far more than the levelised cost of electricity figures we routinely see quoted for renewable electricity. So the picture is much more complex than simply comparing costs at the generator. We live in a radically...

Written Answers — Department for Energy Security and Net Zero: Renewable Energy (18 Sep 2023)

Lord Callanan: The Government regularly publishes its view of the levelised cost of generating a unit of electricity from various technologies, including renewables and gas-fired power generation with CCUS, in the Electricity generation costs report which was updated in 2023.

Written Ministerial Statements — Department for Energy Security and Net Zero: Boosting the Future of our Renewables Sector (16 Nov 2023)

Claire Coutinho: ...shifts. Existing analysis shows that renewables form the bedrock of a low-cost energy electricity system. This is in line with the conclusions from the Office for Budget Responsibility's 'enhanced levelised cost' analysis from 2023.[1] Last year, volatile global gas prices drove electricity prices to record highs – many times greater than the Administrative Strike Prices set out today....
