What should I include in a feedin tariff checklist before choosing an electricity plan for my solar system?

A SolarWise Team Answered by

Your feed-in tariff checklist should cover the export rate, whether it changes by time of day, any daily or monthly export limits, and eligibility conditions. Also compare the retailer’s usage rates, daily supply charge, discounts, connection fees, contract terms and any rewards or sign-up credits. Estimate your likely annual bill using your household’s solar generation, self-consumption and exported electricity, rather than choosing a plan on the feed-in tariff alone. Rates and conditions vary by retailer and location, so check the current plan documents and compare offers through your state’s authorised comparison service or the Energy Made Easy website.
