What’s a Feed-in Tariff?

A Feed-in Tariff (FiT) is an incentive structure legislated by the Government to encourage the adoption of renewable energy in the UK. It means that we will pay you up to 41.3p/kWh for every unit of electricity that you generate. Plus, for every metered unit¹ of electricity you feed into the power grid, we’ll give you an extra 3p/kWh². Feed-in Tariffs are available from the 1 April 2010.
