OPA proposes new pricing for ground-mounted solar PV projects
On July 2, 2010, the Ontario Power Authority proposed a new pricing category of 58.8 cents per kilowatt-hour for ground-mounted solar PV projects under its microFIT Program.
The new price category will apply to new applicants or those applicants who have submitted an application, but have not yet received a contract or conditional contract offer. Applicants who have already executed a contract or have received a conditional contract offer from the OPA will continue to be eligible for the original price of 80.2 cents per kilowatt-hour.
The OPA will be hosting webinars on July 6 and July 8 to provide additional information on the update and will be accepting written comments on the proposal until August 3, 2010.
