A Shropshire co-operative company has welcomed government plans to make it easier for solar panels to be installed on rooftops.

Labour's new energy secretary Ed Miliband said he wants to launch a"solar rooftop revolution" as he takes steps to boost the UK's solar energy capacity., says it makes sense to put solar panels on big roofs.

The Big Solar Co-op is a not-for-profit volunteer-led organisation with some significant projects to its name."We have huge numbers of large roofs in the UK and it makes sense to solarise most of them. "Investment in solar receives no subsidy whatsoever but we don't get the tax reliefs that other investments can access.

The relaunched solar taskforce will bring together industry experts and government with the aim of tripling solar power by 2030.
