Anyone else notice this article in last Saturday's FT?
http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/143af718-3...44feabdc0.html Here's the money bit: "Overall, says the Department of Energy and Climate Change, anyone installing a “well-sited” 2.5kW solar panel at a cost of around £12,500 is likely to earn £900 and get around £140 a year off their electricity bill from it. And you won’t just get this money for a year. You’ll get it for up to 25 years (depending on which technology you install). It will also be index-linked – so your payments will rise every year along with inflation. And, absolutely best of all, for those of us still reeling from the small print of the Budget, it will be entirely tax-free." The policy seems very screwy, but it does make photovoltaic cells on the roof quite an attractive idea. Anyone actually got any installed? |
