The Government has today announced details of its scheme to allow people to sell electricity to the national grid from solar energy they generate. However, Simon Hughes MP (Liberal Democrat Shadow Energy and Climate Change Secretary) attacked the scheme, saying, "The Government has given in to the nuclear lobby at the expense of community-led power generation.
"This will disappoint anyone looking to do their bit to contribute towards our energy supply. Another opportunity has been squandered. While dozens of countries already support home energy generation, Labour's plans are too little too late.
"People who supply green energy should get a better deal if we want to cut energy bills, create green jobs and help cut emissions."
