I believe that you can register your FIT with any of the licensed electricity suppliers so you are not tied to the company you get your power from therefore if you decide to change your power supplier at a later date you can either keep your FIT with SSE or transfer it to the new supplier when you switch.0 -
How would that work Keith ? What if the energy supplier has more than a fair share of paying the FITS. Perhaps a central fund !!!0

Precisely. Ofgem administers a central 'Levelisation Fund' that all licensed electricity suppliers are obliged to pay into. Any FIT provider that is paying more than his fair whack of FIT payments gets a helping of the dosh.0 -

Yes it is a central kitty controlled by ofgem.
The kitty is funded by a levy on all electricity suppliers. So if Company A and Company B both sold xkWh electricity they would contribute the same funds to the kitty.
Each of them would then claim from the kitty for the FIT money they paid out.0 -
Auditing too no doubt.0
