Harnessing Solar Energy in the UK: Government Initiatives and Technological Advancements

The Great British Insulation Scheme

Complementing this investment, the Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS) aims to improve energy efficiency in residential properties across the UK. Running from July 2023 to March 2026, GBIS focuses on delivering insulation measures to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. The scheme is expected to treat approximately 315,000 homes, with beneficiaries potentially seeing annual energy bill reductions of £300-£400

Technological Innovations in Energy Storage

Advancements in energy storage technology are also playing a crucial role in the UK’s renewable energy landscape. For instance, Drax Group is set to receive £24 million in green subsidies for its pumped hydro assets, including the Cruachan power station in Scotland. Pumped hydro storage systems like Cruachan store energy by moving water to higher elevations when electricity is abundant and release it to generate power during peak demand. Such projects are essential for balancing the grid and ensuring a stable energy supply as the UK increases its reliance on renewable sources.
