Small ZREC Tariff

Small ZREC projects (less than or equal to 100 kW AC) that meet program eligibility requirements are eligible to receive compensation for 15 years under UI’s tariff without participating in the competitive solicitation process required of projects larger than 100 kW AC. Applications are processed on a first-come, first-served basis other than during the “two-week” window described in the Rules and Process document.
