Apparently solar has produced more electricity than coal in the UK over the last week.

Southill Community Energy (SCE) has just announced that construction finance is now in place for Southill Solar (subject to contract). So if you buy shares in Southill Solar, you can be confident that 100% of your investment will be used to see this project through.

This means Southill Solar is a definite go. Work is expected to start on the site in July, and the solar farm should be up and producing electricity by the target date of 6 September.

Construction funding will come from Solarcentury, the company contracted to build the solar farm. Solarcentury will use its own funds to complement the funds SCE have raised to date. The rate of interest we anticipate paying is not affected - so you can still expect to see a 5% return and your capital repaid.

The share offer remains open and you can still invest on Ethex:
