Officials periodically meet the shale gas industry (including Third Energy) to discuss progress; part of those discussions have included applications for hydraulic fracturing consent, which were framed around the Department\u2019s guidance document on the matter[1]. My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State will respond appropriately to Third Energy\u2019s application in due course.<\/p>

Since the most recent Capacity Auctions (Winter 2016/17), Capacity Market Units have been required to specify their primary fuel type.<\/p>

In both Winter 2016/17 auctions (the four-year-ahead (T-4) Auction and the Early Auction), Capacity Market Units identifying as \u2018diesel\u2019 accounted for just over 1% of the total capacity secured, but only a tiny fraction (55MW, 0.05%) were new projects.<\/p>

A further breakdown of this figure is outlined as such (all figures in this table have been rounded up or down to the nearest whole number):<\/p>

The Department\u2019s latest assessment of the cost of households\u2019 energy requirements, split by their EPC rating, is contained within the Clean Growth Strategy:<\/p>

To derive these costs, these estimates make standardised assumptions about the temperature a home is heated to, its hot water use and lighting patterns (these assumptions are consistent with those contained within EPCs). Households\u2019 actual energy use may differ - for example where households heat their home to different levels, or use more or less hot water than assumed.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4115", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Margot James"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stourbridge"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Margot James"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-11-02", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-11-02T16:07:48.953Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "201"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-10-30", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Energy: Prices"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what recent estimate his Department has made of the average spend on domestic energy bills by household Energy Performance Certificate rating in the last 12 months for which data is available; and if he will make a statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/308", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Jim Cunningham"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Coventry South"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr Jim Cunningham"} ], "uin" : "110219"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/780666", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/780666/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The UK\u2019s publicly funded fusion research is led by the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA).<\/p>

<\/p>

UKAEA receives direct funding from the Euratom Research and Training Programme (£57.3 m in 2017/18 and £55.1 m in 2018/19) primarily for research carried out at the Joint European Torus (JET).<\/p>

<\/p>

UKAEA also receives grant funding for fusion research from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (£26.1m in 2017/18 and £27.0m in 2018/19).<\/p>

<\/p>

UKAEA also receives additional funding from the UK Government for specific projects which have been worth £5.4m so far in 2017/18. Firm allocations for the financial year 2018/19 and beyond have not yet been made.<\/p>

<\/p>

The UK is also a member of Fusion for Energy, the EU based partnership delivering its contribution to the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, the next generation international fusion project in France. The EU expects to contribute \u20ac380m in 2018 and \u20ac427m in 2019 to ITER. The EU budget beyond 2020 is subject to agreement with EU member states.<\/p>

<\/p>

Information relating to private sector investment in fusion in the UK is not available.<\/p>
