Solar Power: Subsidies
Monday 10th October 2016

Asked by: Ben Bradshaw (Labour - Exeter)

Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether he has made an assessment of the implications for his Department's policies of the report, Seeing through the gloom, UK solar seeks stability after subsidy cut, published in July 2016.

Answered by Jesse Norman - Shadow Leader of the House of Commons

Solar in the UK has been a success story with 11 gigawatts deployed, over 99% of which has been delivered under Conservative-led Governments since May 2010.

Changes to the Feed-in Tariff scheme were introduced in 2016 to manage costs and ensure value for money. We note the efforts that the solar industry is making to adapt to the revised scheme. We have received the report ‘Seeing through the gloom’ and noted its findings.
