Priority ranking for first-round FIT contracts posted


The OPA today posted the priority ranking for 242 first-round FIT projects - applications submitted between October 1 and November 30, 2009 - that did not receive contracts. The ranking is based on the acceleration - shovel readiness - criteria used to assess the first-round applications. 

The ranking can be viewed here.

The acceleration criteria for the first-round "launch" projects are set out in Section 13.4 of the FIT Rules. Information on the FIT launch criteria are available in the Program Launch Rules section of the FIT website (available by clicking here), as well as on the FIT website's Program Launch Q&A (available by clicking here). The criteria are further highlighted on this website here

We recognize there has been great interest in this list and we appreciate your patience.

Second-round applications, submitted between December 1, 2009, and June 4, 2010, are currently being assessed. 

If you have questions about the FIT projects priority ranking, you can send an email to fit@powerauthority.on.ca (please put "FIT projects priority ranking" in the subject line), or you can call 1-888-387-3403.

Thank you for your interest in the FIT Program.
