FIT Program Timeline

The Ontario Power Authority has developed the timelines set out below for the FIT Program.

July 27, 2010 update:

The timelines posted below have changed due to delays in processing the large number of applications received. An updated version will be posted as soon as it is available.

FIT Projects (greater than 500 kW)

 Notes:

• Applications submitted by June 4 will proceed through review, connection availability testing and consideration for contract before the ECT is held in August.
• Applications proceed to contract or the ECT as they are deemed to be complete and have completed the TAT and DAT.
• Applications submitted by June 4 that do not proceed to contract will be considered in the ECT.
• Applications will continue to be accepted after this time, but will be reviewed and assessed following the ECT.

FIT Capacity Allocation Exempt Projects (less than 500 kW)

Contracts for capacity allocation exempt projects submitted after the launch period (after November 30, 2009) will begin in early June. Contracts will be offered on an ongoing basis as applications are deemed complete.
