ABSTRACT
To ensure that everyone plays their part towards achieving the Renewable Energy Strategy’s (RES) target of 15% for renewable energy by 2020, the need to develop new methods of renewable energy in all sectors is apparent.
On 1 February 2010, the Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC) announced their intention to implement tariff levels following the Energy Act 2008 introduction of Feed-in Tariffs (FITs). The FIT scheme is intended to encourage the adoption of small-scale low carbon technologies up to a maximum of 5MW through tariff payments made on both generation and export of produced renewable energy.
