answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/11/2018 answer text <p>It is estimated that deemed export accounts for 45% of the total exported electricity under the Feed-In Tariffs scheme (FIT). In FIT Year 8 (2017-18) total exported electricity amounted to 2,483,061.662 MWh of which 1,123,480.502 MWh was deemed to have been exported. This information is not available for individual technologies.</p><p> </p><p>Levelisation is the mechanism by which the cost of the FIT scheme is apportioned across all Licensed Electricity Suppliers according to their share of Great Britain’s electricity market. Levelisation includes costs on a net basis with the value of deemed export to the supplier deducted from the export tariff payments made on deemed export. The value of electricity deemed to have been exported is set by the Secretary of State on an annual basis.

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what assessment he has made of the compliance of boilers sold in the UK with minimum efficiency requirements.
tabling member constituency	Southampton, Test
tabling member printed	Dr Alan Whitehead
uin	163480
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2018 answer text <p>Boiler standards fall under Building Regulations, and are a devolved matter. In England the current installation standards for boilers came into force in April this year. The Department engaged closely with the industry for two years before setting the standard to ensure the balance was right between ambition and deliverability. Our market assessment in 2017 found that two thirds of boilers available in the market already complied with the new standard. Since coming into force there is no evidence of boilers being sold below the 92% efficiency requirement. We will conduct an assessment in 2019 to ensure standards continue to be met, and a full review within five years.</p> answering member constituency Devizes answering member printed Claire Perry question first answered 25/07/2018 15:18:23 answering member 3974 label Biography information for Claire Perry
