Renewable field looks set for a bright year

摘要

The introduction of Feed-in Tariffs (FiT) last April provided a massive boost to the adoption of renewableenergy technology on farms, and the trend looks set to continue in the coming year. A report by solar specialists Ownergy after the first six months of the FiT scheme confirmed the number of completed systems since the scheme was launched is in line with expectations, which forecast about 100MW of newly installed domestic and commercial capacity in year one. Solar photovoltaics has been a clear beneficiary of favourable generation tariff rates, but many other projects are also under way.
