Trust everyone is aware there will be a major review of Feed In Tariffs in the second half of the year. This is an obligation under the terms of the scheme. It has already been telegraphed quite strongly that returns on smaller systems are currently too high in terms of the Levy Control Framework. Returns should be no more than 5%-8%. This could lead to significant cuts in tariffs in the 0-50kW bands in 2016.
There is ongoing dialogue by the industry with DECC both through a formalised meeting structure and other contact on this, plus how and when the industry moves to Zero Subsidy. In terms of ongoing stability, getting this latter issue right is vital. It is inevitable that this will happen.
I would urge you to read this article at Solar Power Portal and those subsequently published.

Interested to hear views that can be fed back into the process. Being proactive now to secure the best possible outcome is far better than trying to deal with a bad outcome later.
