Renewable Energy：Feed-in-Tariff Scheme

From 1st October 2018 onwards, once the system is connected to the electric grid, you can earn FiT payment (ranges from $3-5/ kWh), until 31st December 2033. So if you have a place where you can build a solar energy system, for instance, village house/ villa’s rooftop, residential building roof, industrial building roof, carpark space, warehouses, you are eligible to earn regular income for 15 years.

 

1. Who is eligible to join the Feed-in-Tariff Scheme?

  • You are a registered CLP account holder (not applicable to government bodies)

  • Your renewable energy system is powered by solar and/or wind and is located on your premises with a total generation capacity of up to 1MW

  • Your renewable energy system can be connected to the CLP network without any increase in capacity or network reinforcement work by CLP

2. Places that can install solar energy system

  • Village House : Canopy, Rooftops, Gardens, Carpark space.

  • Villas：Canopy, Rooftops, Gardens, Carpark space.

  • Residential Building: Rooftop, Cabinets.

  • Industrial Building: Rooftop, Cabinets.

  • School: Rooftop

  • Warehouse: Tiles Rooftop

3. How to calculate the FiT rebate?

  • Depends on the constructible area, different size of solar energy system can be built:

    • If the total system capacity is less than 10kW, the FiT rate is $5 per kWh, generally applicable to village houses and villas.

    • If the total system capacity is between 10kW to 200kW, the FiT rate is $4 per kWh, generally applicable to industrial building and schools’ rooftops.

    • If the total system capacity is between 200kW to 1000kW, the FiT rate is $3 per kWh, generally applicable to warehouses and agricultural land.
