Renewable Heat Incentive Scheme
(asked on 16th January 2015) - View Source
Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, what the value is of (a) overpayments made, (b) overpayments recovered and (c) outstanding payments under the non-domestic renewable heat incentive scheme.
This question was answered on 21st January 2015
Ofgem estimate that across the entire Non Domestic RHI the value of overpayments represents a maximum of 0.7% of total payments for 2013/14. However, given that audits are selected based on the greatest risk, the actual financial impact is expected to be considerably lower.
It is not possible to pinpoint the exact value of outstanding payments under the Non Domestic RHI as the scheme is still open for applications and pays a tariff over a 20 year period.
