The benefits of Rooftop PV?

• Utilised vacant space

• Minimal visual impact

• Generation next to load

• Tariffs benefit business

• Energy cost savings and certainty

• Improve building energy rating and

value

• Contribute to renewable targets

• Marketing and CSR opportunity

The barriers to Rooftop PV?

• Financial – hurdle rates and competition for

capital

• Tenancy duration

• Technology and market risk

• Grid access

• Delivery – design, planning, structural survey

• Long term management (O&M and

performance tracking)

Why now?

Tariff regime is anticipated in 2017

This is likely to have a competitive auction for access and be

limited in scale

Grid access is challenging and finite (experience from NI is that

many lose out)

Planning is required for all projects

Structural and conditional survey

Lease and PPA agreement

All of the above takes time to get to ‘shovel ready’ projects by

2017
