Businessman backs calls for greater gov't commitment to renewable energy

David Dorricott's complex is 'energy independent'

The businessman behind the Mountain View Innovation Centre has added his voice to calls for government to show greater commitment to renewable energy in its buildings. 

David Dorricott's complex near Ramsey, which is equipped with 430 solar panels, has been 'energy independent' since April this year.

He says the price of including renewables, particularly in large scale projects, represents a fraction of the overall cost.
