SMART EXPORT GUARANTEE & SOLAR ENERGY

The Smart Export Guarantee: get paid for going green

Everything you need to know about how you can profit from the SEG, made easy with Simple Solar…

At Simple Solar, we're passionate about helping you make the switch to clean energy and reduce your reliance on the grid. One of the great benefits of installing solar panels is the opportunity to earn money through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG). Here, we cover the basics of how SEG works and how Simple Solar can help you take advantage of this program.

What is the SEG?

The SEG is a government-backed scheme that encourages the use of renewable energy. If you have a solar panel system and generate more electricity than you use, you can export the excess back to the National Grid. Through SEG, electricity suppliers are required to pay you for each unit of electricity you export (measured in kilowatt-hours, kWh). However, it's important to note that SEG doesn't set a fixed rate.

The advantages of SEG with Simple Solar

  1. Increased Savings: SEG payments on top of your reduced electricity bills can significantly boost your financial return on investment in solar panels. The exact amount you earn depends on the export tariff offered by your electricity supplier.

  2. Simple Process: Simple Solar will advise on what you need to do for a smooth SEG registration process, ensuring you receive the payments you deserve.

  3. Peace of Mind: Our team will ensure your system meets SEG eligibility requirements and keep you informed throughout the process.

  4. Shop for the Best Rate: There’s a lot of competition in the electricity supplier market. So it’s worth looking up reputable comparison sites to find the electricity supplier offering the best SEG export tariff for your needs. Here’s a good one for starters: solarenergyuk.org, which compares tariffs from various suppliers. Of course, you don’t have to change, but it might be worth exploring your options

  5. Start Earning: Once registered with your chosen supplier, you'll automatically receive payments for the electricity you export.
