Thank you to all microFIT applicants who submitted feedback during the recent 30-day consultation period on the new price category for ground-mounted solar PV projects. The microFIT team will make an announcement about the new price category as soon as possible following review of the materials and information received.

On July 2, microFIT applicants received a notice advising that their application had been unlocked, with instructions to resubmit their application with additional information. 

The deadline to resubmit microFIT applications has been extended to Tuesday, September 7 at 5 p.m. This extension will provide applicants with more time, if needed, to assess their project under the new category for ground-mounted solar PV projects.

Resubmitted applications for ground-mounted projects will be offered the price that is to be finalized after the consultation period. 

In the meantime, the OPA is processing resubmitted applications so that conditional offers for ground-mounted solar PV projects can be made as quickly as possible following the announcement. Applicants are encouraged to resubmit their application as soon as possible if they have decided to go ahead with their project.

Applications that have not been resubmitted by September 7 will be withdrawn from the program. A new application can be submitted at any time.
