Assuming you're on FIT, this is extremely expensive because you
will be losing 43p/unit that you put into your storage heaters,

That's not how it works AFAIK, the 43p is paid for generating it, not
exporting it (there's a small additional payment for that), he could
have solar powered 500W halogens lights in his garden and be paid to run
them while the sun shines...

Actually, I think you may be right..
