So what's going on with the feed in tariff and solar PV system installation,? A very good question!
The situation is somewhat involved. With the government moving the goal posts on renewable energy and solar panel installations there is obvious confusion.

Householders with an installation date after 3rd March 2012 will receive 21p per kWh for every Kilowatt gnerated from their solar pv installation.

Householders with Solar panel installation commissioned after 1st April 2012 will receive 21p/kWh for every kW generated from their solar panel installation, provided that their home has an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) Band D or better. Homes which do not have an EPC Band D or better will get will get a reduced generation tariff rate of 9p/kWh.
Solar installations completed after 1st July 2012 it is proposed that the rate should between 16.5p/kWh – 13.6p/kWh. The exact rate will depend upon the amount of solar PV installed between March and April 2012.
Clear as mud isnt it, basically the quicker you have your PV installed the better.
