O&G giant Total and Google Cloud are launching a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool to help accelerate the deployment of residential solar panels.

Solar Power Portal spoke to Jon Cowdrill, head of residential solar at Joju Solar about the strong demand for residential solar installations despite the impact of COVID-19.

The value of residential solar has been touted after new research revealed that the technology can boost the value of houses by over £30,000.

The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) has sentenced the final two of six men jailed for defrauding customers, and secured £434,835.73 for the victims.

Housebuilder Taylor Wimpey has requested to remove solar PV from a planning application lodged with Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council.

Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) offerings continue to be announced, as Good Energy reveals its tariff for smaller installations isn’t yet operational.

The Solar Trade Association (STA) is joining forces with the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) for a new offering.

Shell Energy has boosted its Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) tariff to 3.5p per kWh, two days after the scheme was introduced.

Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) tariffs have been unveiled after the legislation came into full effect yesterday (1 January 2020), with pricing ranging wildly from Social Energy’s 5.6p per kWh down to the barely-compliant 0.001p per kWh that Shell Energy is offering.

Shell Energy’s Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) tariff is to launch later in 2020 than the 1 January implementation date, it told Solar Power Portal.
