☀ Solar PV Feed In Tariffs
The Government’s feed-in tariff (FIT) came into effect in April 2010. This cashback scheme will pay a premium rate for electricity generated from renewable sources such as solar PV – fixed for up to 25 years.
Feed-in tariff payments for domestic properties will be exempt from income tax. Owners will also benefit from savings on their electricity bill as a result of the electricity they no longer need to buy.
The tariff rates that apply to Solar PV Systems installed between 15 July 2009 and 31 March 2012
☀ Solar PV<4kW (retrofit) 43.3p
☀ Solar PV<4kW (new build)36.1p
☀ Solar PV 4-10kW 36.1p
☀ Solar PV 10–100kW 31.4p
☀ Solar PV 100kW–5MW 29.3p
☀ Solar PV Stand-alone system 29.3p
☀ Solar PV Export rate 3p
Please note that these tariffs benefits will reduce on installations made from 1st April 2012. The export rate will remain constant.
Once entered into the scheme, each installation will receive the same level of payment for electricity generated throughout the lifetime of the tariff (subject to retail price index- linked inflation). In the case of solar PV systems, the tariff lifetime is 25 years.
The feed-in tariff payments will be made to the owner of the system by licensed electricity suppliers.
