The New FIT Payment
Still Makes Solar PV Extremely Attractive In the South West
In April 2010 the government introduced a new feed in tariff scheme for
Solar Photovoltaics which significantly improves their payback time.
- It is
now possible to generate significant income from your roof, barn or
land, guaranteed and RPI linked for 20 years!
- Typical UK
domestic installation can generate
£400-£850
in energy savings and annual FIT income for a South facing roof.
- The
South West
significantly outperforms the rest of the UK and the figures
quoted above!


The Solar PV Feed In Tariff benefits you in three ways:
- For each unit of electricity you generate your chosen energy supplier will pay you
15.4p even if you use that electricity!
- Your energy supplier will pay you an additional 4.5p (20.5p total) for all electricity exported back to the National Grid.
- You will reduce your overall electricity bill.
