The Program Administrator has published a corrected General Selection Stage Waitlist to correct an error made during the Project Selection Process on Wednesday 10/27/2021.

———————————————————————————————————————————-

The Program Administrator has published the tables of projects selected for the 2021-2022 program year in the Low-Income Community Solar sub-program below. These projects are subject to review and approval by the Illinois Commerce Commission.

Next Steps

The last two projects selected in the Low-Income Community Solar sub-program have incentive values greater than the remaining annual sub-program budget available. The Approved Vendors for these projects have several available options for moving forward, outlined in the Project Selection Protocol and Section 9 of the Approved Vendor Manual. A final list of selected projects for the 2021-2022 program year will be posted and emailed to stakeholders when the Approved Vendors decide their course of action and the sub-program budget has been fully allocated.

Rolling Application Submissions

As a reminder, because the total incentive values of submissions to the LIDG sub-program did not exceed the sub-program’s available budget for the program year, the LIDG sub-program reopened for application submissions on June 22, 2021, and Approved Vendors are welcome to submit batches of projects on a first-come, first-served basis until May 31, 2022, or until the annual sub-program budget is exhausted, whichever comes first.

For the first nine months of the program year, 25% of the LIDG program year budget will be reserved for 1-4 unit building projects. Any funds that aren’t used in this carveout by February 28, 2022 will be released for contracts by any eligible LIDG project. Further details can be found in the Project Selection Protocol document.

Random Selection Seed Values

The seed value for randomization was provided by the computing system time in microseconds at the moment of script execution. The five seed values, used for the EJ 8.75 score group, the EJ 8.5 score group, the LI 8.5 score group, the General Selection 6.5 score group and the General Selection 8.5 score group, respectively, are listed below.
