Sell Unused Energy Back To The Grid
What is the smart export guarantee & how does it work
- Sell your un-used electricity back to the grid
The Smart Export Guarantee
- Produce electricity via your Solar Panels and sell the energy back to the grid
- Sign up to fixed energy tariffs that pay you to sell your electricity back to your supplier
- Reduce your own electricity bills by using the energy you produce and selling the excess back to the grid
About The Smart Export Scheme
- The Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) came into effect on 1 January 2020 and is currently the only type of solar panel funding available in the UK.
- Following the closure of the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) scheme to new applicants in March 2019, the government recognised the need to pay small-scale renewable energy generators for the electricity they export to the grid.
- The Smart Export Guarantee is a positive development, but it goes nowhere near far enough to reward solar households or encourage prospective buyers. The best Smart Export Guarantee tariff is Octopus's 15p per kWh offering, while the standard rate consumers pay for electricity is currently 34p per kWh
- If you generate renewable electricity in your home or business, you can feed back into the grid any electricity that you don't use. Under the Smart Export Guarantee ( SEG ) you will be paid for every unit of electricity that you feed back. You won't be paid for any that you use yourself.
