90% of solar panels are made in China. A fantastic buisness opportunity for someone over here then to open a factory up and solve the shortage.In todays Guardian:

Pretty sure there's a place at Leadgate Ind.Est. near Consett that makes them. The factory is covered in them, has been for years. Romac I think the company is called.
Plenty more needed at this rate.

If folk are paying £500 a month in energy costs they'll not be able to afford the 10k installation. Vicious circle.
Thats where a program needs brought in to subsidize the initial costs. Its going to have to happen at this rate.

Been quoted £18k a fortnight ago best quote I’ve had is just under 16. That’s for 20 panels 10kwh battery, 8kw inverter, car charger, water divert and bird protection. The prices have already started to go up since turn of the year, supply and demand that though.

This Liz Truss has evidently zero intention of any grants towards solar, she’s actually talking about removing them the mad bitch.
Removing them, why would she want to legislate that?

I don’t think she could but what she wants.

She does have a point if farmers choose not to produce crops and instead put solar panels on the fields.

You need to read the article, that’s not what’s been said. A farmer can do what he wants but she’s saying they shouldn’t be allowed to Anyway it’s not encouraging she has any interest in Solar at all.
There was one in 2012…the Green Deal…but it was scrapped as Cameron and Osborne wanted to ‘cut the green crap’.
Typical long term thinking from that lot.

No profit for them with it. That’s what matters with tories.
If she wants farmers to produce more she should have negotiated trade deals that make it worth their while. The solar arrays are predominantly built on marginal land.

How's this for a crackpot idea, anyone tried getting a GP appointment! They are completely devoid of ideas.

GPs could prescribe money off energy bills under Treasury plan
Proposal would mean doctors would assess whether patients are struggling enough to require help

Just had my renewal quote through from Eon.
Currently paying 1200 per year on my fixed deal which ends on 3rd October. Their standard variable tariff will take that upto roughly £1800 per year.
The fixed deal they are offering me is a whopping £3400
