Boilers powered by biofuels and micro-CHP are eligible within limits
Biofuel heating
The Government has decided that biofuels should be used primarily in other applications, such as transport, therefore they are only eligible for the tariffs under limited circumstances. They are not eligible under the Feed-in Tariffs, but have limited eligibility under the Renewable Heat Incentive. This is subject to consultation. Read more on our information site about the RHI.
Micro Combined Heat and Power
The Feed-in Tariffs provide for a 'pilot' of up to 30,000 installations of micro-CHP installations up to 2kW each. This will be reviewed after the first 12,000 have been installed.
