“We need to create noise and pressure on the Minister to answer our very reasonable demands for fair treatment” says the STA.

This summer the government proposed to withdraw the export tariff, which has been of great concern to many STA members, particularly those who install rooftop solar.

To address this, the STA are ramping up efforts to safeguard the export tariff ASAP for solar power with a new social media campaign, directing people to this web page, which sets out the actions they can take to help.

Please find below links to all the resources you need to join in as much or as little as you’d like. Ideas including adding the logo to your website, with a link to the campaign page, adding a #Fair4Solar Twibbon to your social media profiles, sharing dedicated infographics on social media, spreading the word amongst your network and contacting your MP.

More ways to help.

The STA will also be promoting a series of videos from key stakeholders in solar power, such as schools, local Government leaders, young people, community energy groups and more to demonstrate the tremendous diversity of support for solar across the country. They are keen to interview solar companies for short 60 second videos as part of this campaign, as they are keen to showcase how dedicated & skilled their members are. Please let them know if you would like to participate.

Given the importance of this issue, the STA has contributed to the 10:10 campaign which will be launched week commencing 21st October. They are very grateful to members & beyond who have contributed generously to this campaign to help the whole industry.
