The feed-in-tariff for solar PV is having a significant impact on the development of renewable electricity across the UK.  Since its introduction in April 2010, the FIT has delivered over 10,000 PV installations representing 26MW of installed capacity.

The launch of the WAG supported Framework for PV gives public sector organisations security and certainty in the installation of PV systems, leading to greater investment certainty.
