Benefits of the micro-fit program

Under this program you will be paid a guaranteed price over a 20-year term for all the electricity you produce and deliver to the province’s electricity grid.

Get paid for the power you produce, with prices that: are designed to cover the costs of a typical project – purchase, installation, connection, operating and maintenance allow you to earn a reasonable rate of return on your investment over the term of your contract.

Contribute to a healthier environment by: generating electricity from renewable sources – solar photovoltaic (PV), wind, water and bioenergy helping to replace coal-fired generation across the province by 2014 and reduce greenhouse gases and other pollutants being part of the largest climate change initiative in North America and it’s happening right here in Ontario.

Help to create new local businesses and green jobs: as demand rises for technologies such as solar panels, wind turbines and biomass, more Ontarians will be needed to design, build, install, operate and maintain these technologies.
