Solar Frequently Asked Questions
What is a feed-in tariff?
A feed-in tariff is a payment to households, community organisations and small businesses from power companies for electricity that is fed into the power grid.
How much energy does an average system generate?
In Victoria, an average residential solar electricity system (1.5 kilowatts in size) can produce over 2,000 kilowatt hours of energy per year
It important to note that the amount a household returns to the grid will depend on how much energy is consumed and when the solar panels are actually generating power.
