Selected Projects and Next Steps for the Non-Profit and Public Facilities and Residential Solar Sub-Programs - Illinois Solar for All

Following the Project Selection Protocol, the 2021-2022 selected projects for the Illinois Solar for All: Non-Profit and Public Facilities and Illinois Solar for All: Residential Solar sub-programs are available. These projects are subject to review and approval by the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC).

Next Steps

The last two projects selected in the Non-Profit and Public Facilities sub-program have incentive values greater than the remaining budget available for the sub-program. The Approved Vendor for these projects has several available options for moving forward, outlined in the Project Selection Protocol and Section 9 of the Approved Vendor Manual. If the Approved Vendor declines either selection for an ILSFA REC contract that requires resizing, the selection option would pass on to the next project on the waitlist.  A final list of selected projects for the 2021-2022 program year will be made available when the Approved Vendor decides their course of action, and the Non-Profit and Public Facilities sub-program’s budget has been fully allocated.

Non-Profit and Public Facilities and Residential Solar

As a reminder, the Residential Solar sub-program reopened on June 22, 2021, for application submissions, 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 Residential Solar sub-program’s 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 Residential Solar project.

The Illinois Solar for All: Community Solar sub-program’s initial project submission window opens on August 23, 2021, and closes on September 3, 2021, at 5 p.m. CT. If necessary, project selection is scheduled for October 27, 2021.

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 three seed values, used for the two-point score group, the one-point score group, and the zero-point score group, respectively, are listed below.
