Smart Export Guarantee (SEG)
Voltx Power have now become a voluntary SEG licensee and are excited to be able to offer customers with a qualifying export meter a way to earn money through selling their excess electricity.
What is SEG?
The government recognised the need for small scale generators to be paid for the energy they export. The Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) was created to replace the Feed in Tariff which closed to new applicants in April 2019. The SEG is an obligation on larger suppliers allowing customers to get paid for the excess renewable generated electricity they send back to the grid. Voltx Power have now voluntarily joined this scheme.

- Anaerobic Digestion
- Solar Photovoltaic
- Wind ( Onshore Wind Turbine)
- Hydro Generation station
Up to 50kW

Power (CHP)
