DECC (the Department of Energy & Climate Change) has decided that Solar Thermal systems like ThermaTwin will qualify for a Feed in Tariff (FiT) of 19.2p per kw/h, which means that for every kilowatt (one thousand watts of energy) generated by the ThermaTwin panel, the home owner will receive a deemed tariff of 19.2p* on top of the savings in energy they have not had to pay for (roughly 4p per kw/h for mains gas & 12p per kw/h for electric).
With the average ThermaTwin panel generating 1,000 kw/h per year* this means that properties currently served by electric could receive a benefit of £290* per annum.
