Mitsubishi solar PV eligible for grants

10 September, 2009

Government grants are now available for public-sector and charitable bodies using solar technology from Mitsubishi Electric. Solar PV modules from the company are eligible for grants of up to 50% towards installation costs as part of the Microgeneration Certification Scheme.

Perry Jackson, general manager of the company’s PV department, says, ‘Solar PV technology is proving one of the most popular uptakes in renewable energy sources. The Government allocated an additional £35 million to Phase 2 of the Low Carbon Buildings Programme in April due to demand. However, funding can only be accessed by using products and installers registered on the MCS.’
