microFIT Program overview

If you are developing a small renewable energy project, the microFIT Program provides a streamlined way for you to connect your project and receive payment for the electricity you produce and send to the province’s electricity distribution system (i.e., "the grid").

Projects eligible for the microFIT Program will receive:

a long-term contract for the payment of electricity produced from the renewable energy project
a fixed price for the full term of the contract.

Once you've selected your renewable energy technology and developed a project plan, signing up for the microFIT Program is straightforward.

Once your project is connected to the grid, the OPA will send you a microFIT contract offer. You will need to log in to your "My microFIT home page" to accept your microFIT contract.
