The Court of Appeal has today refused the Government’s appeal against the High Court ruling that premature cuts to FiTs for solar PV were illegal. In a unanimous decision the three judges confirmed that the Government’s attempt to cut solar Feed-in tariffs from 12 December was unlawful.
The Department for Energy and Climate Change confirmed that Feed-in tariff rates would not be the reduced rates announced before Christmas, but those originally laid out in legislation as 43.3p per kWh generated for domestic installations until 3rd March 2012.
