No single solution for Britain’s energy problems, says minister

Malcolm Wicks, the energy minister, said yesterday there would have to be some form of “relationship” between the government and the energy market if Britain opted to build a new generation of nuclear power stations.

But he made it clear it was far too early to discuss what form such a link would take. “If we go down that path, and I underline ‘if’, there would have to be some particular relationship between the state and the market. What that would be I don’t know; we are not there yet.”
