    I know that many people have already done the sums to take into account the 4.1% RPI increase for December, but you may like to know that the uplift from 1 April for FIT and Export payments has now been published by OFGEM: https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/publications-and-updates/feed-tariff-fit-tariff-table-1-april-2018

    Hi

    I normally pick that information up from a news-feed on the vriconian website when I check on the weather but Ofgem didn't seem to have pushed anything out when I looked yesterday - just checked again & the feed is still not showing anything so it looks like Ofgem haven't tweeted anything out yet, but I did noticed an update notification had appeared on the site ....

    ... anyway, as I now know the clouds are bubbling up and moving our way I'm going to make a cuppa whilst there's still enough generation to run the heat-pump & a kettle for free! ... ;):cool:

    1st Feb - 0.94 O's.
    2nd Feb - 1.00 O's.
