The Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) regulations to implement the Stand-by Mechanism for the budget management of the non-domestic RHI scheme have now come in to force and the Stand-by Mechanism is now formalised.

To provide greater transparency and certainty for potential scheme applicants, members and investors, we committed to provide a weekly forecast of estimated spend for the 2012/13 financial year (based on applications received to date).
