Supreme Court rejects Governments Feed-in-Tariff Appeal
23.03.12
The Supreme Court has today thrown out the government's appeal against a previous ruling that deemed its controversial changes to solar feed-in tariff (FIT) incentives as unlawful.
The decision brings to a close a long-running legal saga, and confirms that solar installations completed between 12 December last year and 4 March this year will receive the original 43p/kWh rate, rather than the 21p/kWh rate proposed by the government.
The ruling ends months of uncertainty for the solar industry. It ensures that companies and households that installed solar panels prior to 4 March will receive the feed-in tariff rate they anticipated when originally approving projects.
