Ensuring your Heat Meter is RHI Compliant: Recalibrate or Replace

The Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) program has significantly reshaped the landscape of renewable energy use, particularly in heating systems. To maximise the benefits of this initiative, precise metering is essential for securing incentive payments. DMS Metering provides expert support in the recalibration and replacement of energy meters, helping ensure compliance with the latest RHI requirements.

The Renewable Heat Incentive: What is it?

The Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) is a government initiative aimed at promoting the adoption of renewable energy technologies for heating. 

In addition to environmental benefits, participants in the RHI scheme receive financial incentives. While new applications for the RHI 

are now closed, existing participants must ensure their energy meters are recalibrated or replaced every 10 years to maintain eligibility for payments.

Why is Accurate Meter Reading important for the RHI Incentive? 

Accurate energy metering is a fundamental requirement for claiming RHI incentives. The precise measurement of heat generated by

renewable systems is necessary to receive the correct payments. However, over time, energy meters may lose accuracy due to drift 

in calibration, leading to incorrect readings that could jeopardise RHI payments, resulting in underpayment or disqualification.
