Best UK Solar Export Tariff

Find out about Scottish and Southern's new 18p/kWh export tariff for grid tied solar power systems

solar | news

A huge boost to the UK domestic solar power has come from energy supplier Scottish and Southern Energy. Their new Solar Energyplus tariff offers grid-tied photovoltaic solar system owners a market leading 18 pence / kWh export tariff. It is aimed at small businesses and households.

Solar Energyplus

Scottish and Southern Energy will pay to install export meters, obtain ROC accreditation, and act as ROC agents for owners of solar energy systems. At 18p per kWh exported, a system generating 1500kWh per year (equivalent to half the UK average for household energy consumption) will earn £135 per year if exporting 50% of power generated.
