Standard Offer Program Development Archive

The Standard Offer Program for Renewable Energy was launched on November 22, 2006 and is now open for applications.

This program development archive presents the publications and activities of the Ontario Power Authority, together with the Ontario Energy Board and various stakeholders - during the three phases of development.

Prior to the launch of the Standard Offer Program, the OPA is releasing a number of documents to help interested parties prepare their applications.
The Draft Program Rules, together with a "plain language" Guide are now available. They are being published in draft form in order to prompt comments and feedback from those with an interest in the program.
In response to a request from the Minister of Energy, the OPA and Ontario Energy Board (OEB) worked together to develop recommendations for a Standard Offer Program for small generators that use renewable resources.
