A seminar on 15 April 2010 at BRE in Watford will explain the new Feed-In Tariffs (FITs), a government-backed initiative to make producing renewable energy more financially attractive.
Taking effect from 1 April 2010, Feed-In Tariffs will reward those generating and using renewable energy at their properties. This will be done through the Generation Tariff - a fixed income for every kilowatt hour of electricity generated and used in the property, and the Export Tariff - an additional fixed income for every kilowatt hour of electricity generated and sold back to the grid.
