This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Deciding to install solar panels on supermarkets would be a matter for the owner of the supermarket, not the Government or House of Commons.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to increase incentives for installing solar panels on existing structures, to reduce the need for solar farms elsewhere.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
