UK: Aerial mapping company Bluesky is helping a charity’s campaign to protect the subsidies for clean energy projects. Under recent Government proposals, changes to the Feed-in-Tariffs (FiTs) for wind, solar and hydropower will be dramatically cut and eventually phased out. The ‘Keep FiTs’ campaign, by climate change charity 10:10, is designed to give the public a chance to have their say on the consultation through a simple web portal.
Bluesky generates renewable energy maps, for instance, by using photogrammetric techniques to accurately measure and record factors that may contribute to the suitability of a property for photovoltaic systems.
