Financial Incentives

What is a feed-in tariff?

A feed-in tariff is a credit paid by electricity retailers for excess solar energy exported to the grid.

How much can be saved with solar?

Savings depend on system size, energy usage, feed-in tariff rates, and local electricity prices. Many households reduce bills by 50–80%.

What is the payback period for a solar system?

Most systems pay for themselves within 3 to 6 years, depending on energy consumption and available incentives.
