Solar panel owners face £100 HMRC fine risk as UK tax deadline nears

Solar panel owners face £100 HMRC fine risk as UK tax deadline nears

More than 54,500 UK households with rooftop solar panels face an automatic £100 penalty if they miss the Jan. 31 deadline for filing a Self Assessment tax return, GB News reported Saturday. This annual return is used to report income not taxed at source. The report estimates around 605,966 solar owners could exceed HMRC’s £1,000 trading allowance—the tax-free threshold for small side incomes—when export payments are added to other earnings. George Penny, founder of solar installer The Solar Co, warned the £100 fine might “wipe out around a third” of some households’ yearly export income. HMRC issues a reminder with just two weeks left before the online filing deadline at 11:59 p.m. on Jan. 31. This cutoff applies to returns covering the tax year from April 6, 2024, to April 5, 2025. It’s a key date for anyone earning outside PAYE — the pay-as-you-earn system most employers use — as well as for those who must pay any outstanding tax by then.

  • IREN drops after Russell 1000 debut as investors look at CEO awards
    July 5, 2026, 2:03 PM EDT. IREN Limited (NASDAQ:IREN) fell 10.39% to $38.82 on July 2 after joining the Russell 1000 index on June 26. The stock is down 17.8% for the week, while the Russell 1000 gained 1.8%. Pressure on the shares increased after IREN disclosed it gave big restricted stock units grants to co-CEOs William and Daniel Roberts, worth about 18.2 million shares, or 5.1% of the company. Short-seller Jim Chanos took aim at the size of the awards compared to expected net income. IREN's board cleared the grants, which will vest over four years and are subject to a two-year hold after vesting. The company has also appointed new execs with cloud and infrastructure backgrounds. Investors are watching governance and strategy as interest in IREN's AI cloud plans stays strong.
