To participate in the FIT Program, you must first register and submit an application online. You then submit an application package by mail to the OPA.
 
Capacity allocation exempt projects are generally small projects connected to the distribution system.
 
There are five tools designed to identify connection availability or, when none is present, to facilitate the development of plans for expanding the grid to enable the connection of FIT projects.
 
During the period immediately after the official launch of the FIT Program until the first transmission availability test scheduled after November 30, 2009, connection capacity will be allocated according to a different set of rules.
 
When the OPA has accepted an application and connection resources have been assigned to the project, the OPA will provide an offer notice to the applicant.
