8/2/10 - Solar Power has been in the headlines over the last week following the Government's announcement of the feed-in tariff.  Particular supporters of solar power are The Guardian and The Independent who demonstrated just how valuable the return was for photovoltaic systems.

"If the Government offered to pay you £1,000 a year for the next 25 years, in return for an up front investment of £12,500 you'd sign up in a second," The Guardian reported on Saturday, 6th February.  It went on to say that the Government had effectively offered homeowners this deal last week with the introduction of the feed-in tariff, for those installing electricity producing solar panels.
