Feed-in tariffs

Getting paid to generate renewable electricity

You can now get paid a substantial amount of money by generating renewable electricity (through solar PV panels or wind turbines on-site).

The feed-in tariff pays homeowners with solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels 14.99p per kWh of electricity produced, regardless of whether is it consumed or not (known as 'generation tariff'). A good sized Photovoltaic system could generate approx. £750 a year in revenue (including the money saved on electricity bills and export tariff now set at 4.64p per kWh), bringing the payback of the investment down to about 10-12 years. This revenue generated by the homeowner is tax free and index linked (RPI) to account for inflation and the tariff is guaranteed for 20 years.

In addition you will need to make sure your house is as efficienct as possible. if your house has a Band E EPC or less (SAP <55) the tariff rate will be dropped to 6.85p per kWh. If you need to increase your property's energy rating, why not get a Green Deal Assessment and see what improvements your property could benefit from. Contact us today for more information.
