Information for solar customers

Things to know about feeding electricity into the network from your solar panels.

Solar feed-in tariff rates

A solar feed-in tariff (FiT) is the rate paid for any electricity your solar system feeds into the grid. Feed-in tariffs not subject to GST for residential customers.

Solar FiTs can vary, and we’ll notify you of any changes. How and when they vary depends on where you live:

  • VIC & WA: FiTs may be adjusted from time to time based on market value, regulations and changes in demand, with at least five business days’ written notice to you.

  • NSW & SA: For reductions, at least five business days' notice and only in July (unless driven by a distributor tariff reassignment). For increases, as soon as practicable and no later than your next bill.

  • QLD: For reductions, at least ten business days' notice and only in July (unless driven by a distributor tariff reassignment). For increases, at least five business days prior.

Solar feed-in terms

These terms apply to AGL solar feed-in tariffs, effective from 8 November 2023:

To be eligible for AGL's solar feed-in tariff, the inverter capacity of your solar system must not exceed, or must be export limited to:

  • 10 kW in New South Wales and South Australia

  • 100 kW in Victoria

  • 30 kW in Queensland

You must also not be receiving a feed-in tariff under a government scheme.

Our solar services are not currently available in Western Australia.
