The application forms themselves are reasonably straightforward. Some people have reported confusion with regard to the “Export Meter” question. Export Meters are only required if you plan to sell more than half of what you generate back to your energy supplier, this is rare.
The current position is that the supplier assumes you sell 50% of what you generate to the grid (called your “deemed export”) and they will usually send you a cheque every quarter to reflect this.
It’s really important to us that this process is as painless for you as possible so I would encourage you to get in touch with any queries you may have – we’ll be happy to help!
