How do I compare solar feedin tariffs and find the best electricity plan for my home?

A SolarWise Team Answered by

Compare more than the advertised feed-in tariff: check the usage rate, daily supply charge, export limits, and whether different rates apply at different times. A higher feed-in tariff may not reduce your bill if the plan has expensive usage charges or your system exports little energy. Use your recent electricity bill and solar export data to estimate the total annual cost under each plan, including any discounts or conditional credits. Retailer offers change, so confirm the current rates and terms directly with the provider or through an Australian energy comparison service.
