Understanding Alinta Energy's Feed-in Tariff

payments

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 Alinta Energy's FIT at 10c and usage rates around 34c, every kWh you use yourself instead of exporting saves you an extra 24c.

Is Alinta Energy's 10c FiT Worth It?

Alinta Energy's best rate of 10c/kWh is below their average usage rate of 34c/kWh. Every kWh you self-consume instead of export saves you an extra 24c.

A battery lets you store your daytime solar for evening use, maximising the value of every kWh you generate.
