Solar power should be embraced by the business community as a real solution to business energy needs, according to an independent solar expert.
Michael Pitcher, managing director of BFC Solutions, recommends that the UK follows the example of Belgium and Germany in embracing solar energy’s potential.
Speaking to ClickPress, Mr Pitcher was also quick to point out that it was not just domestic energy customers who would benefit from a more widespread adoption of solar energy: business energy customers would also reap the rewards.
Through investment in solar or photovoltaic (PV) energy, business electricity prices could be brought down dramatically.
“Whilst the benefits of solar PV are well-documented, the opportunity extends far beyond the market for household systems. Our experience tells us that PV entrepreneurs will take advantage of the new FiTs,” Mr Pitcher commented.
Under the FiTs scheme, business electricity customers will be paid 29.3p for every unit of electricity generated between 100kWp and 5MW.
