There is no real limit under the FIT program but if you go above 10kW you can no longer participate in microFIT. This means that there are additional requirements and your pay will drop from 80.2 cents per kWh to 71.3 cents. That being said, larger system can be cheaper to install due to the economies of scale. In reality it would not make sense to install 15kW but it may make sense to install 25kW or 50kW if you have a decent size barn facing the right way.
