Fit Payment Permit For Free

1.1. On 18 December 2018, the government announced their decision to close the FIT scheme to new applicants from 1 April 2019. 1.2. No new applications made to the FIT scheme from 1 April 2019 will be accredited, subject to some limited exceptions.

Government therefore published a consultation on 19 July proposing to close the current FIT flat rate export tariff alongside the generation tariff from 31 March 2019, which reflects our desire to move towards fairer, cost reflective pricing and the continued drive to minimise support costs on consumers as set out in

The FIT scheme has been replaced by the smart export guarantee (SEG), which came in on 1 January 2020. Like the FIT scheme, it pays you for any surplus electricity you produce but don't use.

Relevant tariffs have been adjusted by RPI of 7.5 percent, effective from 1 April 2022.

What's the best Smart Export Guarantee rate? Octopus offers the best SEG rate (not Tesla, as we explain below), paying out 15p for every kWh of renewable electricity a household sends to the Grid. This is only available to its own customers, though ? it pays other households 4.1p per kWh.

GloBird Energy and Origin have the best solar feed-in tariff in NSW, where eligible customers on a single rate tariff can get 20 cents per kilowatt hour (c/kWh) for feeding electricity into the grid.

Yes, you can switch your energy supplier even with a Feed-In Tariff without losing your payments or having the payment rate changed. You can switch your household energy supplier to one that does not participate the Feed-In Tariff (FiT) scheme, while keeping your FiT with your existing provider.
