Solar Power - Energy Switch

We have bought a house which has solar panels installed. We are using EDF as our feed in tarrif supplier as well as provider for our electricity. Does anyone know if you can change supplier for electricity, and if so do you have to change who you feed the solar panel reading to as well please? Thanks

    No you can retain your FIT paying supplier(EDF in your case) and use any other supplier for gas/electricity.

    All the Big Six have to operate FIT's under compulsory participation in the scheme; some smaller suppliers can decline to process your FITs if they no longer supply you.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Indeed some smaller suppliers do not deal with the FIT scheme at all.
