In this week’s Pixie Chart of the week, following the closure of the Feed-in Tariff (FiT) scheme to new generation on 31 March 2019, Community and Renewable Energy Scotland (CARES) has produced guidelines to help assess returns for investment in small-scale renewable energy.
The CARES Project Viability Modelling Post Feed-in Tariff investigates the economic viability of solar PV, wind and hydro projects at different scales without subsidy. Economic feasibility is analysed for 50kW (small-scale), 500kW (medium-scale) and 1,500kW (large-scale) sized assets in each technology.
