Yeah it was a long day to say the least.

[Liam Stoker @Solar_Editor]

An exhaustive (and exhausting, judging by the look of @DavidEnergyNews this afternoon) summary of Ofgem's Targeted Charging Review update today.

To say the minded-to decision is unpopular would be an understatement.

[Liam Stoker @Solar_Editor]

Last few days to apply to be our new reporter, working across our online publications @SolarPowerPort, @energystoragenw and @TweetsByCurrent. More info and details on how to apply here: https://t.co/3UgYt47rfd

Exciting visit yday to @Arsenal stadium to see a UK first in @_PivotPower @downingllp behind the meter battery. Will trade on wholesale market rather than deliver onsite benefits, culminating 3 years of hard work. Thanks to @Greenhouse_PR for the invite https://t.co/8kvXb5iyj8

#CapacityMarket pre-quals show massive fall in battery capacity seeking contracts, down 45% in T-4 and 59% in T-1 on last years'. De-rating and FoM revenues likely to blame, but some interesting projects coming through like 4 hour durations https://t.co/a8HWt1Mks6

Wowsers: ECJ has ruled the GB Capacity Mechanism falls fouls of state aid rules, following challenge by @tempusenergy. Government intends to reinstate the scheme, but as it stands GB cannot hold new auctions and cant make payments for previous auctions. https://t.co/UzXmqscZYi

Planning for future after tariffs (maybe incl. export) key for UK solar as talk at @thesolartrade @RenewableUK event showed. Here's a blog on where to look & how some international comparisons can be unhelpful. Comments from @downingllp @hcwbatten (and me) https://t.co/mLDmPeXeAt

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

UK's 2nd subsidy free solar farm unveiled by @WSCCNews using battery storage to access multi revenues to support solar sales. Shows @thesolartrade was right to say local authorities are often 'leading the way' in #UK #solar https://t.co/zwT7VCsNeV

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

Energy trading to make up bulk of future battery revenues as flexibility takes hold of £6 billion opportunity to 2030. No arguments from @Limejump @Flexitricity & @AnescoLtd as @AuroraER_Oxford sets out its latest forecasts https://t.co/UxeBmXkMVy

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

@EDFofficiel sets its sights on becoming the no. 1 e-mobility company in Europe by 2022: biggest network operator, smart charging leader and supplier to most #ElectricVehicles . Latest big O&G to reposition as energy and mobility company https://t.co/3TXENynZut

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

In terms of launching a home battery that consumers will recognise, @Duracell may be on to a winner with the all too familiar design for its upcoming launch. Also flies in the face of the sleek design by the likes of @Tesla & @sonnenCommunity

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

@ChargePointnet continuing to niggle at UK competitors with call for open access #ElectricVehicle charging after new agreement w/ @evbox saying closed networks "will need to change their mind" as they not helping consumers, even causing barriers for them https://t.co/eHgWIoyX1i

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

@centricaplc gets 100 residential installations of 300kWp of new solar and 700kWh of storage underway in Cornwall w/ @sonnenCommunity & @SunGiftSolar as local energy marketplace gets closer to fruition. https://t.co/CRCKKwBKD6

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

This week I spoke to @wpduk Nigel Turvey and @energynetworks Randolph Brazier on the progress of the #OpenNetworksProject over 2018 covering #FutureWorlds, smart meters / data and 'flexibility first'. See part 2 of my blog here https://t.co/oxMW7qU3x7

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

@ChargePointnet CEO & Pres tells #UK #ElectricVehicle charger competitors to "follow suit" after setting 2.5m deployment target for 2025. At the same time, he expects to reach 70% market share in Europe over this time to replicate US success https://t.co/vhBoYcEB8Y

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

Batteries from @Tesla & @AnescoLtd combine at @pdfoodservice to offer front-of-meter services. But with @SunGiftSolar installs, wind gen and demand, future will see more tech added with behind-the-meter biz models being considered https://t.co/npgoOQsPZ3

@MikeL_IHSMarkit As @CornwallInsight has pointed out, the TSO publication was followed by a document from SEM committee which overruled certain points, such as increasing max procurement to 140MW and allowing 50MW projects. More can be found here https://t.co/rMk4MMpDMf

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

@mlkubik @fluenceenergy ...in the Republic of Ireland" I should have clarified.

[David Pratt @DavidEnergyNews]

@thesolartrade go big with over 200 signatures on open letter to @claireperrymp @beisgovuk calling for export tariff to remain as fair payment to small scale generators. Also raises question of legality compared to existing @EU_Commission legislation https://t.co/ZgbstqY9f2
