Tariff Levels Table
The level of the generation tariff is dependent on the technology and the system size.
The main benefit of the Feed-In Tariffs is the generation tariff, which is paid for every kilowatt hour of electricity produced. The amount paid per hour is determined by the type of technology and the size of the system.
The Feed-In Tariffs scheme also provides two further benefits: an additional payment for surplus energy exported to the grid (this is called the export tariff) and a saving on energy purchased from your electricity supplier.
