The Committee on Climate Change expressed that the Government should stretch its programme to develop a technology which can trap carbon emissions through coal-fired plants to entail gas power stations.
The Committee further voiced that the efforts to grab the global warming needs reduction in the emissions through electricity generation to almost zero by 2030, which shall rule out the new conventional gas-fired power stations after 2020.
Further the committee recommended the carbon capture and storage demonstration scheme, trailed in by the past government to fix them to the four new coal power stations with the technology to curtail emissions through fossil fuels, indulging gas as well.
The committee has advised the Government on the issues over tackling global warming, and according to them the ministers should consider funding at least one of the gas-fired plants all set with the technology.
However the Carbon capture and storage has not been evolved at that scale, but there seems to be no hopes as the technology can slash emissions through power stations moving up to 90%, by grabbing the carbon dioxide crafted through burning fossil fuels and storing permanently underground.
Although the two potential schemes are on their way to compete for funding, potentially more than £1 billion, which can build its first new plant with the technology fitted on part of its output – at Longannet, Scotland and Kingsnorth, Kent.
