Registration fee increase for SGUs from 17 October 2011

As foreshadowed in May 2011 as part of the 2011/12 Budget and within the consultation paper released on the Department’s website on 1 September 2011, regulations for the increase in registration fee from 8 cents to 47 cents for small-scale technology certificates (STCs) for small generation units (SGU) have been made.

The regulations apply the increased fee to all STCs created in the REC Registry for SGU systems from 17 October 2011. The registration fee for large-scale generation certificates (LGCs) will remain at 8 cents per certificate. The registration fee for STCs for solar and heat pump hot water systems will remain unchanged.

October 2011 - Cost Recovery Impact Statement

A Cost Recovery Impact Statement (CRIS) has been prepared for the increase in the fee. For a copy of the statement, visit the CRIS page.
