Low Feed-In Tariff on Your Exported Solar?

A low feed-in tariff means your retailer pays little for the solar power you export. Your retailer sets the rate, and it is usually far below the price you pay to buy power. This page is part of our solar power installation service.

Why It Matters

Each kilowatt-hour you use at home saves you the full retail price. Each kilowatt-hour you export earns only the feed-in tariff. Using more of your own solar is worth more than exporting it.

What You Can Do

  • Run appliances such as the dishwasher, washing machine and pool pump in daylight.
  • Use solar for hot water and for charging an EV.
  • Add a battery to store daytime power for the evening.
  • Compare retail plans, and check the feed-in rate on each.

Export Limit Is Separate

Your network sets how much you can export. The feed-in tariff sets what you earn for it.
