Not sure if this is the current position but as it dates from Sept 2014 it probably is http://www.yougen.co.uk/blog-entry/2453/How+will+feed-in+tariffs+be+affected+by+the+smart+meter+revolution'3F/

A Hawaii + .79 for us today!!


We had our Smart Meter installed in March this year. We have been paid a FIT payment since. We have not been asked to send in any readings for our export!!!!!!! We do export over 50% mostly because we are such low users!!!

11.06 O's (43.75 kWh)

Would be well happy if that was one day but, its Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday!;)
I may not have had the sun at home but did get use of it when I was away on the south coast.

As the weather has turned only need 25 O's to make Estimate!:eek:

My Fit reading goes in today also. Around 1.5 MWh

Think you will find that you only get paid now for your actual export, in your case, export ain't much.... @ 3p per kWh

Thank you, Oscar. I think that the export payment is 4.85 pence.

The price of gas here is 3.034 p per kWh. If efficiency of heating water is less than 63% (3.034/4.850) then I should switch off the iboost and be paid for my export instead.

Wattson thinks that since mid-March I retained 73% of generation, but that includes diversion to the immersion. I will do some sums but at £82 payment per year based on PVGIS there isn't a lot of money in it either way.

Ovo has confirmed (a little to my surprise) that from now on I will be metered for export. That is, in my case, a disadvantage.

So I may move from a payment of 3380 PVGIS x 0.0458/2 = £77;

down to 3380 PVGIS x .27 * .0458 = £42;

only a £35 annual loss;

but then there is the possibility of switching off the iBoost if it doesn't cost in, i.e. if the export payment exceed the cost of gas saved.
