PVOutput.org - What data did you enter for FiT calculations?

When using PVOutput.org, what data did you enter into the tariff section so your FiT payments could be calculated?
No matter what I enter it always shows 0.00 though many other seem to have calculated payments assigned to each month etc

    Hi Gary.

    The only figure I have is 43.3 in the "Export Rates" box. All the FIT credits show until January this year, then show £0.00 after. Maybe they have an issue with the site.

    Thanks, that could be the same reason I only see £0.00
    What did you use for the Export Model, Gross or the more obvious Gross UK?

    I've also selected the Export Model as Net and put a figure of 12.00 in all the Import Rates boxes. I wasn't sure if this was still needed even though I'm not logging consumption.

    I've also just changed the figure to 45.4 as that's the new rate from today :)

    Just "Gross" for the Export Model, although I did just change this to "Gross UK" and it seemed to make no difference.

    I guess you could also add half of the export rate to be even more accurate. Don't know the new figures, but I guess the old ones would be 43.3p + 1.55p (half of 3.1p export rate), total = 44.85p

    Export is now 3.2p so 1.6p to be added to 45.4p for a nice round 47p
    You just have to love the Feed in Tariff!
