Jonathan Scurlock_275_258NFU chief renewable energy adviser Dr Jonathan Scurlock said: "Despite the cascade of Government cuts to renewable energy support, the NFU believes that solar power continues to offer farmers a sound investment, to manage input costs and to diversify our agricultural sector.

“Small and medium sized PV rooftops for on-site power generation make good financial sense even without subsidy – and large ground-mounted solar farms can be profitable without government support where electricity is used locally or sold to clean power customers."
