U.K. Proposes New Renewable Tariffs for Small Wind, Hydro Plans
This article is for subscribers only.
The U.K. energy department proposed new incentive rates that cut support for small-scale wind projects while making little change to small hydroelectric projects.
The changes in so-called feed-in tariffs coming into effect on Dec. 1 also cover micro combined heat and power plants and small-scale anaerobic digesters, the Department for Energy and Climate Change said today in an e-mailed statement. Rates on all technologies were largely in step with levels proposed by the government in a consultation that started in February.
