A typical 300 kWp solar installation, with a capital expenditure of \u00a3250k could generate a 20% Net Yield in its first year for a tenant-funded installation, and be paid back in just 5.5 years.<\/p>\n<h3>The report makes recommendations to secure this opportunity<\/h3>\n<p>The report lays out several recommendations to take advantage of this potential, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Remove tax and regulatory barriers by clarifying REIT rules for solar investment; broadening the REIT regime to include renewable energy; extending the business rates exemption for solar investment beyond 2035; and improving capital allowance reliefs.<\/li>\n<li>Standardise legal and commercial frameworks such as PPAs and lease clauses to reduce complexity, cost and delays.<\/li>\n<li>Introduce consistent insurance standards for rooftop solar to reduce design risk and avoid projects being downsized or abandoned.<\/li>\n<li>Strengthen export revenues through more predictable long-term pricing mechanisms, making larger solar installations viable.<\/li>\n<li>Accelerate grid reform and investment to improve connection times, increase capacity and provide clearer information for developers.<\/li>\n<li>Provide long-term policy certainty, including clear implementation of MEES to support investment and make solar a standard feature of commercial buildings.<\/li>\n<li>Maximise existing solar projects by increasing the 50kW cap on permitted development regimes with prior approval with local planning authorities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Rob Wall, assistant director at Real Estate:UK, said: \u201cSolar energy has a critical role to play in the UK\u2019s energy transition, and commercial real estate has the potential to be a major player in the generation of rooftop solar.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;However, as our research shows, deployment of solar on commercial buildings is slow and we are still some way off from delivering that long promised rooftop revolution. There is ambition \u2013 with 85% of real estate professionals expecting solar power generation from commercial buildings to increase over the next 24 months &#8211; but for that to happen we need a series of policy reforms as set out in today\u2019s report.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Download and read the <a
