Greenpeace has claimed the next London mayor could increase solar deployment in the capital tenfold through a series of measures designed to make solar panels more attractive for Londoners. In a report released today, the environmental group says mayoral support is integral to addressing the woeful state of solar in London. Only 0.5% of its 3.4 million homes were fitted with panels by the end of 2015, with the most recent data from 2014 showing the technology was only meeting 0.13% of the city’s electricity consumption needs.
