Encouraging News from Ed Miliband at the DECC

On 14 January, Energy and Climate Change Secretary, Ed Miliband said: “The recession will not deflect the Government’s efforts to cut emissions and move to a low carbon economy. We will not let up on the fight against climate change, instead we must redouble our efforts at home and internationally so the UK emerges from the global downturn building on the opportunities and benefits a low carbon future will bring.”

It looks as though Miliband will be confirming the rate of the Feed-in Tariffs, expected to be 36.5 p for every unit of electricity generated, soon. His press release says: ‘We will shortly be setting out details of our ‘clean energy cash-back’ schemes for people and businesses that generate low carbon heat and electricity.”

If you want to benefit from these tariffs and make a profit by generating your own solar electricity, you need to act now and have a PV Solar Panel Installation up and ready by April 2010, when the Feed-in tariff comes into force.
