It is not the investor that has withdrawn, as (mis)reported here and on the BBC website, it is Empower Community that has put the investment on hold, pending clarification of the FIT.
While the rumours, and it is true that they are rumours at this stage, were coming from an increasingly wide variety of credible, independent sources, we felt it only prudent to protect our investor until clarity is gained.
Reliance on stable government policy is vital if we are to see institutional investment at all, let alone at the scale we all know we need in this sector.
 

Although the rumours are rumours - they have originated with DECC directly. They are not market speculation, they are deliberately started by DECC themselves. You don't have to think very hard to work out why.
