Ontario 2016 FIT Price Review

By Paul Gipe

 

Ontario’s Independent Electricity System Operator has proposed new tariffs for its microFIT program in 2016. The regulator makes a case that although Ontario’s costs are higher than other jurisdictions, the overall costs for solar PV have declined. Consequently, they have proposed lower tariffs for solar PV while leaving other microFIT tariffs unchanged.

Despite the proposed lower tariffs, Ontario’s solar PV tariffs remain among the highest in the world.
