Energy providers in UK are intensifying their campaign against European Commissions stringent plan to curb industrial pollution. They argue that implementation of EU’s directives will result in reduction of 25% of Britain’s power generation capacity. This is going to cause frequent blackouts all over the country.
The Association of Electricity Producers (AEP) has urged Business Secretary, John Hutton to take up the issue of Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) with EU vociferously. EU is planning to further tighten its already stringent limits on emissions sulphur and nitrogen oxides.

Mr Porter, head AEP, sees threat to the future of coal-fired power stations posed by EU directives and considers that it will hamper UK energy providers’ efforts to replace old plants with the new generation plants in future. He claims industry would be put to shell out £2.8bn to comply with EU emission limits, proposed this year. Many suppliers would be forced to close down while recovering hefty equipment installation costs.

He terms EU regulation as scary. It is appealing to bureaucrats but threatening to the industry’s survival. The rush of one regulation after another reflects on poor understanding of business and investment by the European Commission. The AEP has also approached the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and is lobbying the European Parliament with the help of European trade body Eurelectric.
