EDF’s first utility-scale solar PV power plant in the UK began generating electricity last year, triggering a £20,000 per annum community benefit fund.
Solar energy developer Aukera Energy has secured a £135 million senior debt facility from two international banks to finance the growth of its UK solar portfolio.
Two solar developments, awarded contracts in Ireland’s second Renewable Electricity Support Scheme (RESS) in 2022, have reached new milestones, with one entering construction and another newly operational.
The latest data from the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) have revealed that the UK now has a total of 18GW of operational solar PV capacity installed.
Great British Energy could fulfil the government’s ambition to be a catalyst for private sector investment as AMPYR Distributed Energy pledges to match its £180 million for public sector solar PV.
