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.
The Premier of New South Wales has asked IPART to undertake an investigation into solar feed-in tariffs. The investigation will establish a fair and reasonable value for electricity generated by small scale solar photovoltaic systems.
To help guide retailers and customers, IPART annually recommends a benchmark range for these tariffs based on the financial value of solar electricity.
