It was first launched in April 2010, proving a popular scheme amongst homeowners as well as businesses. <\/p>\n<p>The scheme works by paying a fixed price for the electricity you generate in the home, whether it\u2019s used onsite or shipped to the National Grid with the export tariff.<\/p>\n<p>With the current feed-in tariff rates you can earn over \u00a3500 a year, with electricity savings and export tariff payments on top. Ultimately, you\u2019ll make a brilliant return on investment, which is currently between 10% and 15% annually. <\/p>\n<p>When you consider that solar panels will operate with little to no maintenance for at least 25 years, you have a sure-fire way to protect your bills for over two decades. <\/p>\n<p>And once you\u2019re locked onto the current rate, you\u2019re guaranteed higher payments for 20 years. <\/p>\n<div style=\"width:666px;float:left;margin-right:5px;margin-bottom:8px\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.anytrades.co.uk\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Solar-panels-3.jpg\" alt=\"Solar panels 3\" width=\"610\" height=\"380\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2522 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 610px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 610\/380;\" \/><br \/>\n<i>Image from <a title=\"Conservatories\" href=\"http:\/\/pinterest.com\/quotatis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">pinterest<\/a><\/i><\/div>\n<h2>What if I miss the deadline?<\/h2>\n<p>First off, we recommend beating the March 31 deadline in order to receive the higher feed-in tariff rates for 20 years. This will ensure you benefit from a greater return on investment and earn more money on a monthly basis.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you do miss this deadline it\u2019s not the end of the world. Of course, you will receive a lesser rate, but this is still more than enough to see you make a great return over the solar panel system\u2019s lifetime. <\/p>\n<p>Above all it\u2019s important to use a Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) approved installer to fit the panels.
