Great news! The Nature Minister, Mary Creagh CBE MP, has confirmed our understanding that solar farms can actually provide a significant biodiversity net gain, up to 140% in some cases. This is a fantastic opportunity to diversify farm income while supporting nature conservation. We're thrilled to see the Minister's agreement on this important issue. #SolarFarms #Biodiversity #RenewablEenergy

"The solar industry fully supports the Government's clean power mission and is confident that we can treble solar by 2030, provided the right policy framework is in place. However, along with other co-signatories, we are concerned that the current proposal for zonal pricing in the REMA consultation will undermine investor confidence and curb deployment of renewables, putting economic and decarbonisation goals at risk. Reforming the electricity market through evolution, not revolution, would be the wiser course." – Chris Hewett, Chief Executive, Solar Energy UK.
