The UK government has launched a call for evidence to understand how to harness the untapped potential of solar in car parks across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Supermarkets, retail parks, and offices could also save money on their energy bills by turning their carparks into ‘solar carports’, saving up to £28,000 a year and powering businesses and homes across the UK. The call for evidence closes at 11:59pm on 18 June 2025.
Petrol and diesel motorists are also set to be supported by the government’s flagship Fuel Finder scheme – which today appointed a supplier to begin the first phase of delivery that requires all petrol stations to share prices within 30 minutes of a change, driving down prices at the pump and saving drivers between 1 to 6p a litre on average.
