Abstract

Solar energy generation capacity in Scotland and the rest of the UK has grown significantly in recent years. It is now a major contributor to renewable energy capacity. For example, the Department of Energy & Climate Change (DECC) now asserts that “solar PV is an important part of the UK’s energy mix”. The total installed UK capacity was almost 4.5 GW at the end of March 2014. This compares to a total UK installed renewable electricity generation capacity of 19.4GW at the end of December 2013.
