The Ontario Power Authority (OPA) initial launch period deadline for FIT applications is November 30, 2009. This first launch period is designed for projects that were being developed under the Renewable Energy Standard Offer Program (RESOP) and are therefore further advanced. Criteria of earlier commercial operation dates is one such factor in obtaining priority access to transmission availability. To be awarded a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) under the FIT rules, the application has to be submitted in accordance with strict regulations which can be accessed in details via the OPA website at www.powerauthority.on.ca/
