The overwhelming majority of small scale installations in the UK are Solar Photovoltaic, according to BEIS.
Our solar arrays in Salford, Bury and Trafford generated 5,566 Kwh. and 74% of the energy produced was consumed in-site.
Happy Indian Summer to all

This is a great story about the benefits of a local authority investing in solar. Forest Heath District Council’s solar farm has generated more than £1.3m of income in its second year, letting them plough more than £370k back into council services. localgov.co.uk/Councils-sola…
