This fact sheet briefly explains our final findings and recommendations in relation to a fair and reasonable solar feed-in tariff, and discusses how an unsubsidised feed-in tariff should be implemented in NSW.
Solar panels provide numerous benefits to consumers and assist with reducing carbon emissions to help meet the NSW Government’s target of net zero emissions by 2050.
To help guide retailers and customers, IPART annually recommends a benchmark range for these tariffs based on the financial value of solar electricity.

This fact sheet briefly explains our draft findings and recommendations in relation to a fair and reasonable solar feed-in tariff, and discusses how an unsubsidised feed-in tariff should be implemented in NSW.
This fact sheet explains our determination on the benchmark range in 2013/14. The benchmark range is a guide for customers who are not part of the Solar Bonus Scheme.
IPART has set a draft all-day benchmark range of 7.5 c/kWh. We have also set time-dependent feed-in tariff benchmark ranges that are different for different times of the day.
When the Solar Bonus Scheme (SBS) ends on 31 December 2016, SBS customers will stop receiving a subsidised feed-in tariff of either 60 cents or 20 cents per kWh for the electricity they export.
This Fact Sheet provides solar customers with information on what to consider in comparing electricity market offers and the range of offers likely to be available to solar customers after the Solar Bonus Scheme ends.
