Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
Section 14(1) of the Energy Act 1976 requires notice to be given to the Secretary of State of a proposal to carry out works for the establishment of an electricity generating station to be fuelled, or for the conversion of such a station with a view to its being fuelled, by crude liquid petroleum, any petroleum product or natural gas. This Order provides that such notice need not be given where the generating capacity of the station, when established or converted, will be less than 10 megawatts. This Order also gives general authority for a person to enter into or extend the duration of arrangements for obtaining a supply of natural gas as fuel for an electricity generating station with a capacity of less than 10 megawatts, without giving notice to the Secretary of State under section 14(2) of the Act.
