The new 100 MW FIT is the successor to the LADWP’s 10 MW FIT Demonstration Program, launched in May 2012, which restricted projects to solar PV systems of 30–999 kW and helped gauge market pricing and test the initial programme’s structure. Under the new FIT, the first 100 MW of local rooftop solar PV will be procured under a set-price FIT, while the second 50 MW will be priced competitively through an RFP system that is bundled with a utility-scale solar project (see articles for details).
