SPV-29: I own a 5-10 kW PV system. Am I eligible to participate in this RFP?

The SPV RFP under the IPA Public Act 98-0672 includes a category for systems under 25 kW. The IPA plan contains an aggregator requirement for bids in the sub-25kW category, which means bids in this category would include RECs from a variety of systems. The program addresses this requirement by requiring that the minimum bid quantity be of 500 RECs, which roughly translates to 79.39 kW.

Please note that there are other requirements for systems to be bid into the program including that the system: 1) must be new, meaning that it must have been energized after January 21, 2015; 2) must have a revenue quality meter; 3) must be interconnected with a regulated utility, municipal utility, or rural electric cooperative in Illinois; 4) must be registered with PJM-EIS GATS or M-RETS; and 5) must be installed by Qualified Persons as this term is defined in the law.
