It looks like December's RPI value is 4.1% - a nice uplift to FIT payments from April 1st.

Good Afternoon All,

I bet somebody somewhere will be trying very hard to find a way of not paying that much. Grin

Wow that's gonna be quite a rise ( if it follows through) especially for the early adopters!
Same old story % of a lot = a lot!!
Anyone done the figures for the high rate of solar PV yet? I can't personally right now!

Aah, inflation. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad. Depending on your point of view!

I read it as Gen = 52.75p
Exp = 3.72p. Therefore effectively £0.5461 per kWh.
