The Joint Venture: State of UK solar with BayWa r.e.

In this episode Omolola and Kelechi catch up with Gordon MacDougall, Managing Director at BayWa r.e. UK, to discuss the state of the UK's solar market.

Our chat touches on the growing excitement for the upcoming contracts for difference (CfD) results this spring, especially with the re-entry of solar and the recently announced news to make CfDs an annual affair.

However, there are still many questions to answer, such as how will solar fair amidst the rising technology costs and energy price volatility? How will the CfD affect solar's subsidy-free future, and can storage help optimise its potential? We touch on these topics and more in our latest episode.
