SOLAR ENERGY FOCUS

In order to try to reach our Europe 2020 target the UK would
like to deliver 15% of its energy consumption from renewable
sources by 2020.

Technology breakdown (TWh) for central view of
deployment in 2020.

Central range for
2020 (TWh)

Onshore wind 24-32

Offshore wind 33-58

Biomass electricity 32-50

Marine 1

Biomass heat (non-domestic) 36-50

Air-source and Ground-source heat pumps
(non-domestic) 16-22

Renewable transport Up to 48 TWh

Others (including hydro, geothermal, solar and 14
domestic heat)

Estimated 15% target 234

Feed-In Tariffs were introduced on 1 April 2010 as the main financial incentive to
encourage uptake of renewable small-scale electricity-generating technologies. Most
domestic technologies including solar panels qualify for the scheme.
