Are co-located systems allowed?

In order to have two systems on the same parcel of land count as separate systems for the ABP they need to meet the requirements below.  If they do not, they will need to be combined into one application.

Co-Location of DG Projects:

The total capacity of distributed generation systems enrolled in the Adjustable Block Program at a customer's location will be considered a single system.  (For example, three 100kW systems at a single location will be considered a 300kW system.)  For purposes of determining the system's REC price, a system's location is considered to be a single building (regardless of the number of utility accounts at the location) for rooftop installations, and a single property parcel for ground-mounted systems (if a property had both rooftop and ground-mounted systems, it will be considered a single system).  Additionally, systems located on multiple different rooftops on the same parcel will be considered a single system if each system is owned by the same entity or its affiliates.

If two or more projects on one parcel are separately owned and serve to offset the load of separate entities, then in order to have these arrays considered as separate projects, an Approved Vendor must provide proof that the occupants are not affiliated entities, and each has a separate utility meter and separate utility billing.
