Frequently asked questions
- What feed-in tariff will I get in ACT?
- Whatever your retailer offers — there is no government minimum here. The survey table shows current base rates across the major retailers.
- Is there a government minimum?
- No — retailer-set — no government minimum.
- Which retailer pays the most?
- The rate is set by the regulator here, so retailers don't compete on it.
- Why did feed-in tariffs drop?
- Rooftop solar floods the grid at midday, pushing wholesale prices toward (and sometimes below) zero exactly when exports happen — so the energy's market value keeps falling. That's also why evening-window rates pay several times the all-day rate, and why self-consuming your solar beats exporting it. See is solar still worth it in ACT?
