NGP can offer customers with a qualifying export meter to earn money through selling excess Electricity.
What is SEG?
The Smart Export Guarantee was setup by the Government, so that small scale generators can be paid for the energy they export. The SEG was created to replace the Feed in Tariff, which closed to new applicants in April 2019. The SEG is an obligation on larger suppliers, which allow customers to get paid for the excess renewable generated Electricity that they send back to the grid.
Why sell back to the grid?
  • You get paid for the Electricity your business doesn’t use when sent back to the grid.
  • You help create a greener future, through reducing carbon emissions supporting sustainability.
  • You help in making renewable energy more reliable for everyone, creating a stable Electricity supply.
What types of renewable technology qualifies to be part of the SEG?
Up to 5MW
  • Anaerobic Digestion
  • Solar Photovoltaic
  • Wind (Onshore Wind Turbine)
  • Hydro Generation Station
Up to 50kW
  • Micro Combined Heat and Power (CHP)
How do you apply for SEG payments from NGP?
What do you need to include within your application?
  • Valid MCS or equivalent certificate
  • Photo of your export meter
  • If VAT Registered, completed self-billing form
What are the additional requirements?
  • Be the owner of the generation unit
  • Have a certified installation (MSC or equivalent)
  • Have a half hourly export meter and have DA/DC appointed
  • Not receiving FIT or SEG payment from any other supplier
Frequently Asked Questions
Can my Business receive both FIT and SEG payments?
Unfortunately, no. If your business has a Feed-in Tariff export currently, you can opt out and opt into the SEG export plan. Please check your FIT rates before opting out and compare them with SEG Tariffs to see what works best for you.
Please note, you can only opt out of FIT Export payments once every 12 months. If you switch from deemed to metered export payments under the FIT Scheme, then you cannot switch back – the change is permanent.
Can I have the SEG, if I have a co-located battery storage?
It doesn’t matter if your Electricity that you export comes from your renewable system or from your battery storage, you can still apply for a tariff and receive payments.
Can I change my installation setup?
You can add additional capacity to your renewable system, however anything over 5MW for solar photovoltaic, wind, hydro or anaerobic digestion installations or anything over 50kW for micro-CHP won’t be paid for.
Can I export an unlimited amount of Electricity?
Yes, you can export an unlimited amount of Electricity to the grid, but it cannot be more than the amount that your renewable energy system can generate – 5MW or 5kW for micro-CHP.
Do I have to have a specific meter to export Electricity?
To export Electricity back to the grid, you need to have either a smart meter (SMETS1 or SMETS2) or an export meter that’s capable of recording half-hourly.
If your energy usage is less than 30kW, then a smart meter would be the best option. If you use more than 30kW, then a HH export meter would be more suitable and we will need a copy of your MOP (Meter Operator Agreement) contract.
