Who pays for new home solar generated power ie Feed In Tariff

Do any suppliers pay FITs for new installations?

I can see from their website that SSE have discontinued the scheme, although will continue to pay FITs to those who signed up earlier.

Thanks

  • You can get about 5p per unit exported from most suppliers. A good option if you have solar for personal use is a solar diverter such as Eddi. This will divert surplus generation for up to two devices with resistive heating elements such as immersion heater elements or storage heater. Saves cost of importing at normal unit rate and avoids having separate solar thermal heating which just adds extra complexity to your renewable energy system. There is also the Zappi EV charger that can divert surplus generation to charge vehicles. I've no connection to the company but do have Eddi and it's providing all our hot water just from surplus on our small 2.6kWp system in the north of Scotland.
