May “demonstration” projects or research and development projects qualify for the REF Fund?
No. Pilot demonstration and/or R&D projects are not eligible for funding under the REFF program. The intent of the REFF is to support renewable energy development projects that rely on commercially viable technologies and are likely to result in construction. Therefore, feasibility studies are limited to those projects that incorporate technologies with a demonstrated maturity in the marketplace or that can provide definitive proof of commercial viability.
