The flue-gas emissions of coal-fired power stations must be tackled, but the task is hugely expensive, costing some £200,000 permegawattof installed capacity.

The installed capacity would have been 380 megawatts and the units generated about 1,000 million.

Along this beam the power is of the order of 10 megawatts; outside the beam it is less than one thousandth part of this.

The total installed capaciy or the peak demand, which is roughly the same, is about 40,000 megawatts, and a quarter of that is 10,000 megawatts.

A further 18 years of investment are needed, for instance, before clean coal technologies will be suitable for a 1,000megawattpower station.

I would stress, in any event, that the cable's total capacity is about 160 megawatts, compared with the 7,000 megawatts which we are currently losing.
