The Sun Continues to Shine on Solar Despite Government Tariff Change
Solar panel energy continues to be the fastest growing renewal energy source in the UK and the Government’s announcement last year of reductions to FIT payments were met at the time with despair by both the solar industry and consumers. However, is all as it seems? Whilst any decrease in Tariff is not welcomed, the latest announcement by the Government reported that £460 million had been set aside to cover new installations and as quoted by Climate Change Minister Greg Barker, their “new plans will see almost two and a half times more installations than originally projected by 2015”.
