To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will make a statement on funding of (a) solar photovoltaic, (b) solar hot water and (c) micro wind generation for domestic use; and whether there has been a change in the funding stream of such projects. (117587)

Under the Low Carbon Buildings Programme Phase 1, we continue to offer funding for successfully completed solar photovoltaic, solar hot water and micro wind turbine projects at the same levels as when the scheme was launched in April 2006. We have held discussions with industry over the level of funding for all microgeneration technologies going forward, and these discussions are ongoing.
