Buildings: Solar Power
- Question
-
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what his policy is on making solarized buildings eligible for business rates relief.
- Answer
-
The Government is continuing to support the take up of solar panels by maintaining the business rates exemption for solar power generating equipment of less than 50kW, between the time of its installation and the next business rates revaluation.
Where energy generated is not for self-consumption, solar panels benefit from the tools of the trade exemption and are not rateable.
