The coalition Government are committed to the full implementation of FITs and wants to see an ambitious roll out of the widest possible range of domestic and community scale renewables, including solar PV.We have therefore expressed concerns that the scheme we inherited leaves open the prospect of large, industrial-scale, greenfield based solar farms distorting the available funding for roof top and other innovative solar technologies, as well as other microgeneration technologies that also qualify for FITs.We do not want to see such projects soaking up the money that would otherwise go to homes, small businesses and communities. We are monitoring the situation closely and, while we will not act retrospectively, we stand ready to take measures to limit the access of such schemes to FITs if necessary. |
