The Ontario Power Authority announced today that any renewable energy project equal to or less than 500 kW in size and installed before October 1, 2009 will be eligible for the FIT program regardless of whether they hold a RESOP contract or meet domestic content requirements set out in the FIT rules.

This means that every solar homeowner in Ontario can apply for a microFIT contract and be rewarded for their pioneering work in moving renewable energy policy forward in Ontario.

Our Power would like to thank the many homeowners who gave us their input on this matter as it allowed us to present evidence to the OPA in support of our request to have RESOP contracts graduated to the new rates.

Also, the OPA has announced that next week they will be unveiling a more detailed interpretation of the domestic content rules to further enable new projects, stay tuned!
