The Feed-in Tariff scheme is a non-taxable green energy scheme. If your company is VAT registered then VAT will be added to your export payment. Please confirm your VAT registration status by completing our VAT declaration form. This will ensure that we are paying and invoicing you accurately.

Your smart meter only records your gas and electricity import supply and exported electricity from your renewable technology.

No. Your Smart IHD only records your gas and electricity meter readings.

Your electricity meter will continue to record the electricity you use in the property but it may slow down when you are generating electricity. If you are generating enough electricity to cover what you are using your electricity meter may stop during that time. If your electricity meter starts to go backwards please contact us as we’ll need to change your meter.

The Feed-in Tariff scheme is separate from your supply account so we are unable to offset this against your energy bills.

EDF Energy are currently not offering an SEG tariff.
