 Solar tariff cut plan ruled legally flawed

Government plans to cut subsidies for solar panels on homes have been ruled legally flawed by the High Court.

Friends of the Earth’s Executive Director, Andy Atkinsm said: “These botched and illegal plans have cast a huge shadow over the solar industry, jeopardising thousands of jobs.

“Solar payments should fall in line with fallinginstallation costs but the speed of the
government’s proposals threatened to
devastate the entire industry.”
