Understanding CovaU's feed-in tariff

FIT isn't everything

A high feed-in tariff looks good, but your usage rate and daily supply charge often have a bigger impact on your total bill. A plan with a lower FIT but cheaper usage rates can save you more overall.

Single vs time-of-use

Single-rate FITs pay the same amount regardless of when you export. Time-of-use FITs pay more during peak periods but less during off-peak, which is when most solar exports happen.

Self-consumption value

With CovaU's FIT at 5.5c and usage rates around 35c, every kWh you use yourself instead of exporting saves you an extra 29.5c.

Is CovaU's 5.5c FiT worth it?

CovaU's best rate of 5.5c/kWh is below their average usage rate of 35c/kWh. Every kWh you self-consume instead of export saves you an extra 29.5c.

A battery lets you store your daytime solar for evening use, so more of every kWh you generate stays with you.

Federal battery rebate: about $3,610 on a 14 kWh battery. One Why Solar Approved installer, one free written quote, and fifteen minutes with a solar expert before you sign.

Not necessarily. A higher feed-in tariff doesn't always mean a better deal overall. Your usage rate (what you pay per kWh consumed) and daily supply charge often matter more than the export rate, especially if you use most of your solar during the day. Compare the total plan cost, not just the FIT.
