Surely it doesn’t cost anywhere near half a million quid to install solar on a school or hospital? How do these projects get signed off ffs, what a massive waste of money?!" The government has announced a £200m programme of fitting solar panels to English schools and hospitals.![]()
Schools and hospitals to get solar panels
The government has announced a £200m programme of fitting solar panels to English schools and hospitals.www.theconstructionindex.co.uk
200 schools and 200 hospitals will be fitted with solar panels
The first project from Great British Energy, the new government-owned renewable energy investment body, is to put solar panels on around 200 schools and 200 NHS sites in England.
Around £80m in funding will support around 200 schools, alongside £100m for nearly 200 NHS sites, covering a third of NHS trusts, to install solar panels.
The first panels are expected to be in schools and hospitals by the end of this summer, saving schools money for the next academic year. "
