The Energy Transition: The Solar Taskforce Highlights the 'untapped potential' of Rooftop Solar

In this course, we look at the first meeting of the Solar Taskforce, Energy UK's response to the proposed changes to National Policy Statements on energy infrastructure and £7bn offshore wind connections up for auction.

By the end of this course, you should be able to:

1. Understand the potential of rooftop solar on commercial buildings, schools, warehouses, and car parks as a key component of affordable solar power
2. Explain the importance of solar energy in achieving the UK's target of increasing solar power capacity to 70GW by 2035
3. Describe the recommendations of the Solar Taskforce, including the publication of a solar roadmap, upskilling the solar workforce, and securing resilient supply chains
