Can we include solar thermal as part of a bundle of measures in an application under the 3rd Open Call for Proposals category or must all solar components be singled out and applied for separately under the SolarBC categorym of PSECA 3?
It is preferable that all solar projects be applied for separately through the SolarBC process in order to leverage the NRCan (or EcoENERGY) funding envelope. If however, the project cannot be complete by Dec. 31, 2010, applicants can apply for funding for solar projects by bundling them with other measures for funding under the 3rd Open Call for Proposals category. Please note that the EcoENERGY funding will improve the overall economics of the project.
