6 FAQs about [National support for solar power plants]
How does the UK support solar?
2.10.12 Government is also supporting solar through the Contracts for Difference Scheme and will include it in future rounds. 2.10.13 Solar farms are one of the most established renewable electricity technologies in the UK and the cheapest form of electricity generation.
Can solar projects be promoted under the NPS?
This has meant that, while utility scale solar projects have been able to be promoted under the NPS for energy infrastructure, developers have had to follow a more protracted route to gaining planning permission: developers have had to rely on the general policy support within EN-1 for their solar projects.
Are more solar 'nationally significant infrastructure projects' going to be approved?
To meet those targets, more solar ‘nationally significant infrastructure projects’ (NSIPs) will need to be approved over the next decade and beyond – only two projects, the Little Crow Solar Park project and the Cleve Hill Solar Park project, have received development consent to date.
How do we support solar PV?
Support for solar PV should assess and respond to the impacts of deployment on: grid systems balancing; grid connectivity; and financial incentives – ensuring that we address the challenges of deploying high volumes of solar PV. 7. This Roadmap sets out these principles – covering what has been done to date, and where further work is needed.
Does government support solar?
It sets out that government is supportive of solar that is “co-located [footnote 80] with other functions (for example, agriculture, onshore wind generation, or storage) to maximise the efficiency of land use”.
What is solar PV & how can it help the UK?
Solar PV is one of the eight key renewable energy technologies that can help to create a clean, balanced UK energy mix1.
