Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, what plans he has to update the Electricity Market Reform Delivery Plan projection of 2.4-4GWp of large-scale solar photovoltaic capacity by 2020; and if he will make a statement.
This question was answered on 19th January 2015
Since the publication of the Electricity Market Reform Delivery Plan in December 2013 we have published updated projections of large-scale solar photovoltaic capacity.
The impact assessment which accompanied Part A of the Government response on financial support to solar PV stated that we now expect to see 3.8 – 6.5GW of large-scale solar by the end of 2016/17, when the Renewables Obligation is closed.
