The Renewable Energy Facilitation Office
Ontario’s Renewable Energy Facilitation Office (REFO) can be your one-window access point for information on renewable energy project requirements. If you are thinking about a renewable energy project but are unsure of what’s involved, then the REFO is a good starting point for you. This REFO website and staff can assist with these types of questions:
- How do I get started with developing a renewable energy project in Ontario?
- What kind of approvals or permits might be required for a renewable energy project?
- Does the government provide any financial assistance with the costs of developing a renewable energy project?
- What is a feed-in tariff? Where can I get more information about this?
