OPPORTUNITIES ARISING
FROM UK WIDE INITIATIVES
UK FEED IN TARIFF SCHEME Introduced on 1 April 2010.
Through the use of FITs, the UK Dept for Energy & Climate Change (DECC) hopes to encourage
deployment of additional small-scale (less than 5MW) low-carbon electricity generation,
particularly by organisations, businesses, communities and individuals that have not traditionally
engaged in the electricity market.
This will allow many people to invest in small-scale low-carbon electricity, in return for a
guaranteed payment from an electricity supplier of their choice for the electricity they generate and
use as well as a guaranteed payment for unused surplus electricity they export back to the grid.
FITs work alongside the Renewables Obligation (RO) – which is currently the primary mechanism
to support deployment of large-scale renewable electricity generation – and the Renewable Heat
Incentive (RHI) which, when implemented, will support generation of heat from renewable sources
at all scales.
Technologies eligible for FITs
Small-scale low-carbon electricity technologies eligible for FITs are:
• wind
• solar photovoltaics (PV)
• hydro
• anaerobic digestion
• domestic scale microCHP (with a capacity of 2kW or less) – a domestic scale microCHP pilot
will support up to 30,000 installations, with a review to start when the 12,000th installation is
completed
FEED IN TARIFF (FIT) UPDATE 31st OCTOBER 2011
The UK government announced plans in early 2011 to impose cuts in the level of incentives
available to solar photovoltaic installations with over 50kW and to increase tariffs for Anaerobic
Digestion (AD) systems
On 31st October 2011, it announced proposals to reduce subsidies for PV schemes up to 4kW in
size to 21p/kWh, down from the current 43p/kWh. Reduced rates are also proposed for schemes
between 4kW and 250kW, to ensure those schemes receive a consistent rate of return. The
proposed new tariffs would apply to all new solar PV installations with an eligibility date on or after
21th December 2011.
Proposed new tariffs:
Band (kW)
Current generation tariff
(p/kWh
Proposed generation tariff
(p/kWh)
≤4kW (new build) 37.8 21
≤4kW (retrofit) 43.3 21
>4-10kW 37.8 16.8
>10-50kW 32.9 15.2
>50-100kW 19 12.9
>100-150kW 19 12.9
>150-250kW 15 12.9
>250kW-5MW 8.5 8.5*
stand alone 8.5 8.5*
Under the proposals, the new tariffs would apply to all new solar PV installations with an eligibility date on or after 12 December 2011. Such
installations would receive the current tariff before moving to the lower tariffs on 1 April 2012. Consumers who already receive a FIT will see their
existing payments unchanged, and those with an eligibility date on or before 11 December 2011 will receive the current rate.

THE GREEN DEAL
Will replace Warmfront scheme in late 2012
• Allows householders to improve efficiency
with no upfront cost
• The upfront finance will be attached to the
building’s energy meter.
• People can pay back over time with the
repayments less than the savings on bills
• If 26 million homes are done, this will create
250,000 jobs
• March 2011 – government funding for 1000
apprentices
• Landlords to face minimum energy
efficiency standards from 2016: 682,000
rental properties
RENEWABLE HEAT INCENTIVE
Details being finalised. First phase large heat users,
second phase domestic
• First of its kind in world
• Renewable technologies include household solar
thermal panels to industrial wood pellet boilers
• £850m of investment
• Objective to move from 1% to 12% of all heat
generated from renewable source by 2020.
Key opportunities for companies in RHI technology
and manufacturing
CRC – CARBON REDUCTION
COMMITMENTS The CRC is a mandatory scheme aimed at improving energy efficiency
and cutting emissions in large public and private sector organisations.
These organisations are responsible for around 10% of the UK’s
emissions.
The scheme features a range of reputational, behavioural and financial
drivers, which aim to encourage organisations to develop energy
management strategies that promote a better understanding of energy
usage.
12 January 2012
The Government published an updated version of the draft CRC Energy
Efficiency Scheme (CRC) Allocation Regulations. They include the
allowance price of £12 for 2012 as announced at Budget 2011.
£3billion to invest in:
energy from waste
non domestic energy efficiency
offshore wind
Need to invest £700million by March
2013
Looking for projects
GREEN INVESTMENT BANK

Key opportunities for companies
in:
• Smart meters
• “beyond the meter” technology
(switch off applications when
on highest tariff)
• network dynamics
• smart grid
OFFSHORE WIND London Array:
An offshore area of 100km2
175 wind turbines
Two offshore substations, one onshore
Nearly 450km of offshore cabling

CO2 savings of 925,000 tonnes a year
London is key location for UK and European HQ
UK is largest offshore generator in the world
Vattenfall is Europe’s fifth largest generator of electricity and the
largest generator of heat. They chose London for their UK HQ for
access to policy makers, decision makers, industry associations
and transport connectivity.
Benefits of London • Mayoral support
• Strength of the market
• Incentives
• Londoners are innovative and willing to try new
technology
• Research and Development
• Imperial College Racing Green Endurance
• Tech cluster e.g. Tech City
“Mayor Boris Johnson is very ambitious with green
technology; more so than his counterparts in New York
or Stockholm. From London’s new bike hire scheme to
its plans for a low carbon Olympics, you can see that
the city is making a real effort to be green.
Having an office in a pioneering green city will give my
business a higher profile around the world.”
