That isn't right.
Sian Berry is one of the Green Party's principal speakers:
"For example, in the daytime when it's sunny, they might be at work and not using any electricity, so it will go to the National Grid. They'll be paid for that, but a really derisory rate - whatever the electricity company feels like giving them. Then in the evening when they go home and they need to pull electricity from the grid, they're paying the full sum. You might get 5p per kilowatt hour to export it and 11p to buy it back in again."
A "very simple system" was needed instead of "eight complex, contradictory policies, none of which are working", she added.
Her report also called for low-cost, interest-free loans for households with lower incomes, so they had greater help in taking advantage of renewable energy.
