Simple advice on how to start getting the benefits of the Feed-In Tariffs

As the rest of this site shows, the advantages of installing your own renewable energy system and benefitting from the Feed-In Tariffs are numerous.

But many people are put off getting started as they're not familiar with the technologies and not sure what is the best system to install.

Three simple steps:

1. Seek expert advice

You should seek a renewable energy company that both understand what the right energy options are for your property AND how to maximise your financial return from the Feed-In Tariffs

2. Find a capable supplier

If the system is sub 50kW, this means that the installer must be MCS certified and the products they use must also be MCS certified as well. We would also recommend that the company is registered under the REAL assurance code as this will provide you with certain levels of protection.

For larger systems, seek a company with the relevant experience and a deep understanding of the Feed-In Tariffs.

3. Get registered for the Feed-In Tariffs

Your installer should be able to help you with this process.
