Feed-in Tariffs Team
Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC)

09/02/12

This consultation proposes changes to the tariffs of the four non-PV tariffs (wind, hydro, anaerobic digestion (AD) and micro combined heat and power (CHP)) and introduces a digression mechanism for each. It proposes special arrangements for community projects, including greater tariff stability. It also proposes an increase in the rate of return available for micro-CHP and proposes tariff guarantees for wind, AD and hydro projects.
