Eon claims SolarSaver 'could deliver 13 years of profit' with Feed-in Tariff

Written by: Brendan Coyne | 07 April 2010

Eon claims its SolarSaver microgeneration package could see homeowners break even on initial investment within 12 years, giving a further 13 years of profit over the 25 year Feed-in Tariff (FiT) period.

The firm basis its assumptions on a 2.1kW solar photovoltaic system under a specific set of 'average' weather, consumption and output criteria - and that the current FiT subsidy and supply cost increase at 2% a year in line with inflation.

If customers decide to move house, Eon says its certificate of performance will show prospective buyers the value of the installation.
