Solar Proposals Are Nuts

I think Brexit has addled brains throughout Westminster. HMG is proposing to do away with the export tariff for new domestic solar installations from April 2019. That's right - any excess generation will be provided free to the grid so power companies will not have to purchase that energy they will, in fact, be subsidised! With the country and the world currently failing to be on track to limiting warming to 1.5C where's the incentive for people to act?

There is a second blow for solar producers. Ofgem has announced that it is proposing to change access charging in a way that will increase costs for domestic solar systems. Thanks Ofgem!
