The UK is pushing solar power despite having some of the lowest sunlight levels in the world. Northern Britain receives less sunshine than Canada. According to a World Bank solar resource assessment, the UK ranks among the least suitable countries for solar generation, second only to Ireland in Europe. Low sunlight means low output and greater reliance on backup power. Moreover, the UK government has approved solar geoengineering research - experiments designed to dim incoming sunlight. So the policy is this: build solar in a low sunlight country, while exploring ways to block the sun.















I’d love to buy this, 33kWh battery makes it really quite useful but £345 tax utterly kills its appeal stone dead for me! (Price is ex vat and fees as always)
