RHI System Heat Meters .

Saw the edit button but bottled out when it came up with dire warnings!

Just click through the questions that do not apply to meter changes. If you email to tell them you have changed a meter they reply with helpful instructions on what to do.

I don't recall reading anything about this when we first installed the system . Is this changing of the rules after we have signed up even legal ?

I don't recall reading anything about this when we first signed up to the scheme . Is this changing the rules as we go along even legal ?

File it with the requirement to have your boiler serviced by a HETAS engineer!

If you can find one.

Go on a course and get your own ticket.

We have changed our meter and are now amending the accreditation but this question has me flummoxed, what should I put or not put?

I wrote that my sheds would have continued to be heated using lpg

Thanks I'll put that we would still be on oil

Won't not of gone ahead.
Simple as that.

When the I in RHI always stood for incentive, you'd think they already knew it'd not make sense to buy this plant without subsidy?

It’s not the users fault they cocked up the rules in NI.

the idea of the scheme was to reduce fossil fuel use and kick start the industry.

I’d say it worked. Trouble is now they are forcing people out by changing the rules.

An early "red flag" to me was that although we had to have a good EPC on our house to receive a decent feed in tariff for a few solar panels there was nothing whatsoever in the RHI scheme to address the energy efficiency of the actual buildings being heated - frankly you couldn't make it up how badly thought out the scheme was.

 

[Doing it for the kids]

True, the scheme wasn’t about energy efficiency, but replacing direct fossil fuel use, which I would say it’s done.

I agree though, the nature of the scheme almost goes against energy efficiency!

I was on about the Scheme in general not specific NI shambles.
If your self Sufficiency and paid to fulfil the Scheme rules as best you can then all well and fair.
But o no they got to cover their farms with panels, wind turbines and burn maximum around the clock to milk it all.
No wonder all these schemes fold eventually and detrimental to genuine users

I don't think people would be heating their tractor sheds 24/7 with kerosene!

All these scams are designed to run their course though,

You are talking about the FIT as well high from what I have seen has been less scandalous than the RHI?

Do the rules allow this though? As a % of all rhi paid out I bet tractor sheds is a small part of it

The daftest waste I heard about was someone burning wood chip to dry wood chip!

They do that in these parts allegedly.
