Smart Export Guarantee
Although the Feed-in Tariff scheme (FiT) ended in 2019, the government introduced a replacement on 1 January 2020. The new scheme is called the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG). You are paid for any electricity you don't use in the home and which gets exported to the grid.
The SEG rate at which you are paid will be decided by your electricity provider. Currently, the market rate varies from about 1p to 15p per kWh, so it's definitely worth shopping around. You will also need a smart meter which the energy provider will install free of charge.
VAT on Solar Panels
1 April 2022 saw a change in the VAT rules governing solar PV installations in the UK. In a nutshell:
- VAT is applied at 0% – i.e. no VAT! – on all domestic solar PV installations up to 31 March 2027.
- If you get battery storage put in as well – either at the same time as the solar or at another date – you also now benefit from 0% VAT on the battery.
