From 1 August 2010 householders in WA will receive a feed-in tariff of 40c per kilowatt hour for surplus solar power they produce and feed into the grid. The rate is in addition to buyback schemes offered through Synergy and Horizon Power.
The WA Government has determined the feed in tariff will be paid to homeowners for 10 years, however the scheme itself will be reviewed every three years or after every 10 megawatts of renewable energy generation.
