The renewable energy Feed-in Tariffs (FiT) for renewable electricity generation has been available for several years. If you install a Solar PV, Hydro or Wind system of up to 5MW capacity you can still claim the FiT for every kWh of electricity generated regardless of use. Rates have been dropping dramatically since the beginning of 2016, and will continue to drop as the monthly and quarterly installation caps are breached.
