We’ve hit a major milestone – we have now exceeded 3GW of renewable capacity under the Feed-in Tariff scheme.
Since the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) scheme started in 2010 there have been 568,612 FIT installations accredited across Great Britain, and we are still seeing approximately 2,500 new installations being registered per week.
Here's how the installation numbers currently add up by technology type:
Accredited FIT installations | Technology type |
---|---|
561,185 | Solar photovoltaic |
6,256 |
Wind |
546 | Hydro |
490 | Microchip |
135 | Anaerobic digestion |

In December 2014 we saw a significant increase in community energy installation applications which schools and community groups can apply for.
