UK Solar Export Tariff Data: Selected July 2026 Snapshot
Checked 10 July 2026: this versioned dataset covers selected suppliers drawn from Ofgem’s 2026/27 Smart Export Guarantee list, plus Good Energy’s public export products for market context. Across 16 brands it contains 25 verified flat-rate records and 4 explicit records where an official site was checked but no public rate was located.

How to read the table: “Not stated” means the supplier’s public summary did not explicitly answer that field; it does not prove there is no condition in the full contract. “Not publicly located” means the official site was checked but a rate could not be verified there. We do not fill that gap from a comparison site. Numeric prices are sorted from highest to lowest, but this is not a whole-house cost ranking.
What the snapshot shows
The highest headline rates are mostly conditional. Good Energy’s 25p rate requires a qualifying solar-and-battery installation and Good Energy supply. EDF and E.ON Next also advertise higher rates tied to specified purchase or installation routes.
The expanded coverage also exposes a quieter data-quality problem: being listed by Ofgem as a current SEG licensee does not guarantee that a consumer can easily find a current rate on the supplier’s public site. Fuse Energy, Outfox Energy, Pozitive Energy and SmartPay Energy are retained as explicit verification-status rows until a current primary tariff page can be cited.
Scope: this dataset records public flat rates from licensed suppliers. It excludes made-to-order commercial export contracts and broker-only quotes because one published rate does not apply to every business site.
Methodology
- Use Ofgem’s current 2026/27 SEG licensee list as the starting point and document the suppliers represented in this selected snapshot.
- Check the supplier’s own public site for a current flat export rate and visible eligibility conditions.
- Record products with one advertised pence-per-kWh rate so the numeric field remains comparable.
- Exclude dynamic and time-of-use products whose value depends on half-hourly prices, postcode or battery dispatch.
- Use “not stated” rather than infer a condition absent from the public summary.
- Publish an explicit no-rate-located record rather than repeat an unverified secondary-source number.
Ofgem’s 2026/27 SEG supplier list is authoritative for licensee status. Good Energy is retained for comparison because it publishes residential export products, but the company is marked as not listed on that Ofgem SEG list.
