FAQs
What if you sell the installation, or ownership changes?
The benefit of the tariffs for the remaining period pass to the new owner.
Chapter 2 of the government's RHI announcement says
Change in ownership
Where an installation is bought by another person, the new owner may receive RHI support for the remaining eligibility period providing it can prove to the satisfaction of Ofgem that ownership has been validly transferred to it, that all eligibility criteria are still being met, and that it will comply with the ongoing obligations required under the scheme.
Where an installation changes ownership, the original participant will be required to provide such information Ofgem may require in order to perform its functions under the scheme. Any attempts to try and continue receiving payments while not in ownership and therefore not eligible, could constitute fraud and will be dealt with accordingly.
