This consultation on the RHI biomethane injection to grid tariff seeks views from industry on the proposed adjustment to the biomethane to grid tariff. The consultation presents two tariff options: banding and tiering. For each option, scenarios are presented that illustrate how tariffs for different sizes of biomethane plant might be derived.

Households that are making their homes more energy efficient can now claim money back to make the cost of the process less expensive. Due to the new Green Deal Home improvement fund (GDHIF), people in England and Wales will be able to receive up to £7600 in order to help lower the amount of money the customer has to spend out of their own pocket and so they can manage their bills and have warmer, greener homes.
This new deal has been put into place to make sure people have the help they need fitting their new energy efficient measures, such as, solid wall insulation and new heating systems. The GDHIF will be available from June 2014.
