The Sunshine Bill will be debated by MPs in the new year.
Max Wilkinson has called for new builds to come with solar panels as standard amid efforts to reduce carbon emissions and cut bills .Housebuilders should lower buyers’ bills with solar panels on every roof, renewable energy charity and company chiefs have urged.
Mr Wilkinson said the proposal is “just really, really obvious” amid efforts to reduce carbon emissions and lower costs. Its signatories, among them Ecotricity chief executive Asif Rehmanwala and E.On Next director of residential newbuild Matthew Hart, also wrote: “The twin crises of high energy bills and climate change present this country with many challenges, but there are also a number of solutions that could be relatively easily implemented.Mr Wilkinson said: “Following the shortest day of the year , it’s time the Government finally commits to a sunnier future.
The MP for Cheltenham in Gloucestershire described adding solar panels to the tune of “a few thousand pounds” as “marginal” against the cost of building a property, which “pays back to the new homeowner within five or six years anyway, so it really is a win-win”.
