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 rate whenever you export, though many pay it only up to a daily cap. Time-of-use FITs pay more during peak periods but less during off-peak, which is when most solar exports happen.

Is CovaU's 5.5c FiT worth it?

Compare what the plan pays for exports with what you pay for power. A battery lets you store your daytime solar for evening use, so more of every kWh you generate stays with you.

CovaU QLD feed-in tariff FAQ

What is CovaU's best solar feed-in tariff in QLD?
CovaU's best all-day feed-in tariff in Queensland is 5.5c/kWh, on CovaU Basics Residential Single (daily cap not confirmed, check the plan). Its highest time-of-use export rate is 15c/kWh between 6pm to 9pm on SolarMax QLD Energex Residential TOU, paid only in that window. Figures are from 24 published CovaU plan records (AER plan data, 5 November 2026).
How does CovaU's FIT compare to other QLD retailers?
CovaU's best rate of 5.5c/kWh is 3.5c above the Queensland median of 2c/kWh. The highest all-day rate in QLD is 12c/kWh from Origin Energy. The highest time-of-use peak rate in QLD is 28c/kWh from Origin Energy, paid 4pm to 9pm.
Should I choose CovaU just for their feed-in tariff?
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.
