A group of solar companies disappointed by the UK’s Department of Energy & Climate Change (DECC) decision to cut the feed-in tariff for solar PV installations over 50kW has been granted permission to proceed with its legal case. A High Court judge has ruled that the group of solar developers seeking a judicial review against Government can now advance with its case against Energy and Climate Change Secretary Chris Huhne.

The case will now be heard before July 29 – which marks the beginning of the High Court’s summer term.

Seems to me their complaint is based almost entirely on failure to follow procedure. If the DECC do lose, all they have to do is follow procedures, consult properly, and magically come to the same conclusion as before.
