As recently shared, the Program has received a high volume of Part I Small DG project applications seeking approval under the 2024 REC Delivery Contract. In an effort to Part I verify as many project applications as possible under the 2024 REC Delivery Contract, the Program Administrator has added additional processing capacity through a combination of increased staff hours, deferring non-essential tasks, and contracting additional employees. These efforts nearly double the capacity to review applications and address Need Info case responses, while continuing to be mindful of Part II application processing demands. In support of stakeholders, the IPA requested and secured ICC approval for a new, additional ICC meeting on May 29, 2026, supported by a shortened, non-standard process schedule. Please see the full announcement for details. Please note that the new Part I Verification deadline is May 14, 2026.
