Feed-in Tariff Program 

The Government of Ontario's Green Energy and Economy Act has created a new Feed-in Tariff (FIT) program to encourage renewable energy generation.  FIT is a straightforward way to contract for renewable energy generation. It provides standardized program rules, prices and contracts. FIT refers to the specific prices paid to renewable energy suppliers for the electricity produced by the generating facility. The pricing structure provides a reasonable return on investment and is differentiated by project size and technology type.

Connect Ontario to Renewable Power

Take advantage of the wind, sun, water or bioenergy and participate in renewable energy generation through Ontario Power Authority’s FIT program. If you are a homeowner, farmer or small business owner, you have the opportunity to develop a renewable electricity generation project on your property and sell your generated energy back to the grid.
