7/12/09 - The Low Carbon Building Programme Phase II Grant Scheme has now closed to new solar PV applications (30 November 2009).  The scheme has closed early following unprecedented demand as the extra funds allocated to Solar PV earlier this year dried up.  A spokesperson for the DECC said the Feed-In Tariff plans were still on track to begin April 2010.   The Feed-In Tariff announcement has already been delayed by a month.

Whilst Phase II has now closed, the LCBP Phase I Scheme for domestic installations remains unchanged.  Currently offering a maximum £2500 per household, this scheme is due to close at the end of March 2010.
