Call on your MP to support rooftop solar

Rooftop solar is finally coming to parliament. MPs will soon have the chance to vote on the ‘New Homes (Solar Generation) Bill’ – also known as the Sunshine Bill – which would require solar panels to be installed on all new homes.

Solar energy has the power to cut sky-high bills and tackle the cost-of-living crisis, while taking urgent action on the climate emergency – a win for people and nature.  

Will you take a couple of minutes to email your MP and urge them to support the Sunshine Bill? 

Secretary of State Ed Miliband agrees with us that we need a rooftop revolution - but we need to see action, not just words. 

CPRE has long been campaigning for a rooftop solar revolution and our research shows that 60% of the UK’s solar targets could be delivered on rooftops. With record-breaking temperatures and extreme weather becoming the norm, time is running out to tackle the climate crisis.

The Sunshine Bill sets the UK on the critical path to achieving our renewable energy targets, but we need your help. It's critical that enough MPs turn up to the debate on 17 January to vote in favour of rooftop solar and drive the bill forward to the next stage in the House of Commons. Send a message to your MP now.
