In a significant move towards sustainable energy, the UK government has announced a 60% increase in subsidies for residential rooftop solar installations. This decision aims to encourage more homeowners to embrace clean energy solutions and reduce their carbon footprint.

The enhanced subsidy programme, effective immediately, will make solar power more accessible and affordable for households across the country. The initiative aligns with the government's commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

Homeowners keen on adopting solar technology can now benefit from more substantial incentives, making the transition to sustainable energy sources a practical and cost-effective choice.
