Ontario's MicroFIT Green Electricity from Solar Energy
MicroFIT was a program to sell all the power you produce to the province of Ontario, at a premium price. This program is over, and no new home owners can participate.
This did create an active market for products to generate electricty which have made the cost of doing net metering and off grid lower in cost than prior to the start of the MicroFIT program.
Today the focus on small scale homeowner energy production and cost savings is the net metering program. It is the only Ontario program available to home owners for a grid tied solar electric system.
