READ MOREThe Feed-In Tariff (FIT) Program was developed to encourage and promote greater use of renewable energy sources including on-shore wind, waterpower, renewable biomass, biogas, landfill gas and solar photovoltaic (PV) for electricity generating projects in Ontario. As a standardized way to contract for renewable energy generation, Ontario''s
READ MOREA Feed-In Tariff (FIT) provides renewable energy generators with a fixed price for the energy which they produce. The FIT is set for each technology individually and is paid for a fixed number of years. This increases the stability and allows for long-term planning, which encourages investment in to renewable energy projects.
READ MOREA Corporate Power Purchase Agreement is an agreement between a large business that consumes electricity and a renewable energy generator. To demonstrate how a CPPA works, we''ll use the common example of a large UK wind farm. In a CPPA, your business agrees on a contract with the owner of the wind farm to purchase electricity generated by
