Ecotricity rejects new green support scheme as too risky
GREEN energy company Ecotricity yesterday said it plans to develop a windfarm in Lincolnshire using the existing renewables support framework rather than a new scheme that it finds unclear.
The government’s renewables obligation support closes on 31 March 2017 but has a one-year grace period, after which contracts for difference must be used. “For now we have the choice and the RO is a far simpler and less risky process,” said Ecotricity founder Dale Vince.
