Another tariff degression? Why it doesn't really matter!
02.08.12

So here we go again. Government has announced that feed-in tariff levels for solar PV installations are to be reduced again effective from the August 1. Residential tariffs will decrease from 21p/kWh to 16p, and typical commercial tariffs at the 50kW scale will reduce from 15.9p/kWh to 13.5p. At first sight, this would appear to make installation of a solar roof unviable. But that isn’t the case, for two key reasons.

First, as the tariffs are coming down, so is the price of a fully installed solar PV system. Over the last three years we have seen the price of PV modules reduce by a factor of 4. Additional components are also reducing in price – inverters and solar mounting systems have benefitted from manufacturing improvements and a more competitive wholesale market in the UK.
