The delayed solar strategy, which had been expected in the spring, has been published as part of Khan’s environment plan for London and will see a pilot in which authorities will approach a number of households to gauge their interest in adding solar to their roofs.
This demand will be pooled together into a package of works which will then be tendered to solar installers who will bid for the work in a competition to offer the best price to Londoners in the pilot. If successful, it will be rolled out across the city.
