A report published by think tank Green Alliance has claimed that the UK public could save as much as £2.5 billion by 2025 if the government introduced a feed-in tariff for energy efficiency technologies.
Solar installers looking to diversify into new technologies should the government’s 87% cuts to the feed-in tariff come into force are looking at a large number of markets, a Solar Media survey has found.
The UK’s Electricity Storage Network (ESN) advocates and educates for a better understanding of the issues surrounding various storage technologies, and how they can be among a number of resources to help balance the country’s energy networks.
Attendees at Solar Media's first Energy Storage roundtable in London have agreed that the nascent energy storage sector will need robust regulation if it is to fufill its enormous potential.
Highview Power Storage, a UK company which makes energy storage systems based on liquid air technology, has said that work is well underway on a 5MW demonstration project in the north-west of England.
Tesla has confirmed that its latest electric vehicle, the Model X, will be launching in September but warned that unforeseen problems with suppliers could impact planned production.
