WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HAVING SOLAR?
Save Money. Earn Money.
Take back control of your energy usage and reduce dependancy on the grid. By having solar, you generate your own energy and sell the excess.
Your electricity supplier will pay you a set rate for each kWh (unit) of electricity that is generated by your solar system. The rate you will receive depends on the size of the PV system installed and the date your electricity supplier receives the FiTs application from, which we will complete on your behalf.
GENERATION TARIFF
In addition to the generation tariff your electricity supplier will also pay you a further known as the export Tariff. Currently for system below 30kWp your suppliers will assume 50% of your Solar PV Generation will be exported to the grid and therefore will pay you an export tariff for that 50%.
EXPORT TARIFF
If you can use the solar PV generated electricity at the time it is being produced (during daylight hours) you will not be importing this amount from the national grid and so your electricity bills will be lower, giving you a further saving. The more you can use at the time of generation, the higher the saving you will make.
ELECTRICITY BILL SAVINGS
HOW IT WORKS
Power your home and business.
Solar works in multiple ways depending on the bespoke design we create for your home or business. Contact us for your free quotation.
In order to qualify for the FIT scheme, the products and the installer need to be MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) certified both East Riding Energy Ltd and the products we install are MCS accredited.
The FIT’s rate you will receive depends on the date of eligibility as well as the level of EPC your building has. Your building needs to have a Level D or above in order to obtain the highest FIT rate. If your property does not have an EPC already we recommend you obtain one, which needs to be carried out and certified before the solar PV commissioning date. Please contact us about this for more information.
NB – buildings without an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) of Level D or above will get a reduced tariff but will still receive export tariff.
ENERGY PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATE (EPC)
If your solar PV system is 50kW or less you will apply through the MCS route. You will need to obtain the FIT form from your electricity supplier, as the FIT payments are a contract between you and your supplier.
MCS ROUTE
The ROO-FIT accreditation process is for solar PV installations over 50kW. There are two options for application being either Full ROO-FIT or FIT preliminary accreditation; the best option depends on what the likely date of the solar PV system commissioning date will be. Please contact us for more information.
ROO-FIT ROUTE
The FIT scheme changed in February 2016 and Ofgem, who administer the scheme, publish the tariffs at the start of each quarter. The rates offered are subject to deployment in the previous quarter so we cannot confirm what future rates will be. However, the current rates are below. These assume the building has an EPC of Level D or above and that you don’t own more than 25 solar PV systems.
