Energy and Climate Change written question – answered at on 5 April 2011.
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change how many certificates an investor or generator may hold for the purposes of feed-in-tariffs in respect of a site with a unique (a) property address and (b) meter point.
No certificates are issued under the feed-in tariffs (FITs) scheme. I therefore take the question to refer to meeting the criteria of the definition of a site for accreditation under the FITs scheme.
A site is defined in the FITs licence conditions as
"the premises to which are attached one or more Accredited FITs installations or Eligible installations in close geographical proximity to each other, to be determined by: a). the relevant meter point administration number for the electricity supply, b). street address, c). OS grid reference; and any other factors with the Authority (Ofgem) at its discretion views as relevant."
It is the responsibility of Ofgem as administrators of the scheme to use their discretion in applying the definition of a site when accrediting an installation for the feed-in tariffs (FITs).
