In the impact assessment, they've segmented the market by how well insulated the house is (ie space heating demand), and unsuprisingly found that all houses need pretty much the same (very high) tariff to be incentivised to use solar thermal.<br /><br />In the solarbloggerhttp://www.solarblogger.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4477778919777007146.post-9600504456550706422012-11-03T09:00:19.767+00:002012-11-03T09:00:19.767+00:00Markocosic,

They've then segmented the market by property type rather than occupancy, and found that everyone needs the same Tariff to go for solar thermal.<br /><br />In fact, (and the solarbloggerhttp://www.solarblogger.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4477778919777007146.post-37903236088824554922012-10-30T11:30:48.233+00:002012-10-30T11:30:48.233+00:00In answer to "Is it enough?"

New-builds, if they are eligible under the RHI, ought to lap it up as the delta cost is less than this.<br /><br />Retrofit applications are tricky. Mr & Mrs so trendy that it hurts were buying wood burning stoves and solar thermal panels before the RHI.

A response from AEA has not been forthcoming.<br /><br />I'm guessing AEA markocosichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09305556529643157185noreply@blogger.com
