As announced on February 5, 2024, the annual block of capacity for Group B Small Distributed Generation (DG) was reached and a soft close period was initiated, allowing the block to remain open for seven additional calendar days or until the submission of 10 additional megawatts, whichever comes first. The soft close period began on Monday, February 5, 2024, and will extend until February 13, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. CPT (as February 12 is an Illinois State Holiday honoring Abraham Lincoln’s birthday), or when 10 megawatts have been reached. Any applications batched and submitted to the Program under Group B Small DG block after the soft close capacity is reached OR after February 13, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. CPT will be placed on a waitlist.
