UK: Community solar project to beat government cuts

The UK's first community-owned "solar power station" has raised the money it needs from local shareholders to start generating energy, ahead of the government's cuts to the feed-in tariff (FiT). After today's confirmation that the Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC) will cut FiT payments to large-scale solar projects (above 50kW), it could be the first and last project of its kind.
