The OPA and the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure (MEI) continue to receive questions related to the domestic content requirements of the microFIT Program.

In an effort to provide greater clarity on what constitutes compliance, the OPA will work with the MEI to provide clarifications and interpretations through a transparent process. This process will ensure that all stakeholders have an opportunity to comment on the interpretations provided by the OPA before they are finalized. The process will include the following steps:

• stakeholder feedback/questions relating to designated activities for domestic content
• OPA/MEI review of feedback and questions
• draft interpretation produced by the MEI/OPA and posted on the microFIT Program website
• stakeholder feedback on the draft interpretation
• OPA/MEI review of feedback
• posting of the final interpretation on the microFIT Program website.

Once the final interpretations are posted, developers and manufacturers should have greater clarity on the contractual requirements for domestic content.

How will the OPA/MEI invite comments?

The OPA/MEI will notify stakeholders of new draft interpretations for comment by email and this website. To subscribe to the microFIT Program updates, please enter your email address in the Subscribe box in the left column menu.
