    This Commons briefing paper attempts to answer some of the most commonly asked questions about solar panels.

  • Solar panel electricity systems, also known as photovoltaics (PV), capture the sun's energy using photovoltaic cells.
  • [1]

    Previously the Government supported domestic solar panels through the Green Deal loan scheme, launched in 2013, and Feed-in Tariffs which provided payments for generating renewable energy, launched in 2010.

  • Solar panels boost the UKs renewable capacity and can reduce household consumption, and possibly bills, for homeowners with panels.

Rachel Reeves MP says small-scale renewable electricity generators are set to lose support from the scrapping of feed-in tariff and export tariff

Key Points: 
  • Rachel Reeves, Chair of the Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Select Committee said,
    "Rooftop solar and other small-scale renewable electricity generators are set to lose support from the scrapping of the feed-in tariff and the export tariff.
  • Its disappointing the Government has failed to spell out why it is that householders should provide solar power to the grid for free and the proposal on the export tariff risks destabilising the development of the small-scale renewable industry in the UK.
  • The Government appears to be shifting on this, but it urgently needs to set out how it will support small-scale renewables and ensure our solar industry gets the backing it deserves".
