Solar Power: Feed-in Tariffs
(asked on 8th September 2016) - View Source
Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what steps he plans to take to improve the performance of the feed-in tariff scheme for solar power; and what the timetable for such improvements is.
This question was answered on 19th September 2016
Solar has been deployed rapidly in recent years from low levels with almost 11 GW of capacity now installed.
Changes to the Feed-in Tariff scheme were introduced in 2016 to manage costs and ensure value for money. While it is appropriate to allow for a period of stability following these changes, we continue to keep the performance of the scheme under review.
