Homeowners have been given a short-term window of opportunity to enjoy a solar power “gold rush”.
A Court of Appeal ruling today means that any Solar PV installations installed, commissioned and registered between December 12 last year and March 3 this year will receive the higher feed-in-tariff rate of 43.3p for the next 25 years. Homeowners who register on or after March 3 will qualify for the higher rate until April 1 when it will drop to 21p. 25-01-2012
David Hunt, a director with leading renewable energy company Eco Environments, said: “This is a fantastic result for Homeowners who have either gone ahead with an installation since December 12 or are keen to do so now. “Given that the cost of Solar PV installations has dropped dramatically since December 12, Homeowners can now achieve breathtaking returns on investment. In year one the return is 18 per cent, while the average return over 25 years is a staggering 39 per cent if you include inflationary increases in FIT payments and electricity price increases. Homeowners will also be able to enjoy a payback period of just three years.” The full consultation on the FIT rates for solar and other technologies is due for release on February 9 which should give a clear picture of the rates from April this year and beyond. David Hunt added: “We would also hope that the consultation will confirm whether or not homes considering an installation from April will need an Energy Performance Certificate of Grade C or above to claim the top FIT payment – or be subject to a much lower rate." • www.eco-environments.co.uk
