MCS specialists respond to Feed In Tariff review

The UK’s leading MCS Specialists have responded to the DECC Feed In Tariff review. Speaking following the announcement, Easy MCS Operations Manager Simon Roberts said “On the back of this announcement we expect there may be some discontent from within the industry on the commercial side…

However, there will be some significant advantages on the domestic side as residential installers can now expect increased levels of demand as the DECC focuses funding on the residential sector. This announcement will also bolster confidence to new installers looking to enter the Renewable’s market”.
