The scheme could be powered using Tunisian sunshine by 2018, composing sufficient energy for approximately 2.5 million UK dwellings. The TuNur program is lining up a move to distribute nearly two gigawatts of solar powered energy to Britain. However that is only on the condition that the organization can tie up a contract for difference with the UK government. As a result of recently developed rules issued by the Department for Energy and Climate Change it means that the UK government is now offering opportunities for overseas developers of renewable energy projects to bid for subsidies contracts to supply power. They advocate that opening the scheme to overseas reduces the expensive cost of investment within low carbon technology.The proposition could soon see hundereds of concentrating solar power depots located in the Middle East and North Affrican's desert territory. The power would need to be carried via undersea cabling to Europe. Even so there is nothing new with reference to distributing energy from North Affrica into Europe. Desertec had been a German pioneering which aimed to evolve a large scale solar pannel enterprise in North Affrica with a notion in mind to supply 15% of Europes energy by 2050. The main stubling block was accumulating a whopping 400bn Euros in funding to execute the project which fundamentally proved a struggle. In recent months the majority of original share holders decided to withdraw. Under fresh terms released last week, farmers rights to claim subsidies for fields of solar pannels will vanish. The stratagy is being implemented to ensure that agricultural land is dedicated to growing food and crops. The advance is welcomed by rural communities whom do not want the landscape cluttered with unsightly solar farms, feeling that these should be located else where. The UK food and farming industry is worth alone £97 billion, in addition offering some of the best farmland in the world which is why ministers are keen to see it devoted to food and farming only. The sheme is scheduled to come into force by January 2015. In spite of the fact the government is widening the bidding door to outside the EU it is by no means leaping to capture the Tunisian contract. The British solar panel industry is also eager to dampen the Affrican's apporach by protesting that it has already suffered from the recent Renewables Obligation cut backs. A further renewables project based in Iceland has also been open to discussion. They propose supplying the UK and other European countries hydro electric power through installing undersea cables covering just over 1,000km in length. Nonetheless Landsvirkjun, Iceland's National Power Company maintains that no word has been clasped as to who would cover the cost of the connection. It's believed that on the condition that the connection is feasable the earliest date which it could be opperational is 2024.
