Peter Hain

The UK has a new energy minister, Peter Hain. As you will see from the
Electricity Association (UK)'s brief below, he should be regarded as much
greener, more interventionist, and populist than his predecessor, Helen
Liddell. Ralph Hodge, David Lewis, and I met with Peter Hain, when he was
involved in Welsh development issues, to discuss our power project at Rassau
in Wales, and found him very supportive of the UK government's stricter
consents policy regarding gas-fired power generation, and not at all
favourably disposed to projects of the size being proposed for Rassau, i.e.,
1200 MW (he asked why we could not make it much smaller). Helen Liddell was
scheduled to go to Washington DC in early February, and Hain may now be her
replacement, in which case some of our US-based enron colleagues will have an
opportunity to meet him. let me know if you need more. thanks mcs
