What feedin tariff can I get for solar in Newcastle and how do I compare electricity plans?

A SolarWise Team Answered by

Feed-in tariffs in Newcastle vary between electricity retailers and plans, so there is no single local rate that applies to every household. Compare the retailer’s export rate, daily supply charge, usage rates, contract conditions and any limits on how much solar you can export. A higher feed-in tariff may not produce the lowest overall bill if the plan has expensive electricity rates or a low export cap. Check the retailer’s current fact sheet and the NSW Government’s Energy Made Easy comparison tool, using your expected solar generation and household usage.
