This guidance is for participants of the Renewables Obligation (RO), Feed-in Tariffs (FIT), Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGO), and Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) schemes who are considering co-locating electricity storage facilities with their accredited RO or REGO generating station, FIT installation, or SEG installation. We have developed this guidance to provide clarity to participants about the treatment of storage facilities within the framework of the schemes in anticipation of increased uptake of co-located storage.

This document has been updated to include an appendix on hydrogen storage co-location and hydrogen production, and how it interacts with the RO and FIT schemes.
