Since the Transition Incentive Program was designed as an interim program to provide incentives after closure of the SREC Registration Program until a Successor Incentive is available, the program rules do not provide a process for individual extension requests. The Board has provided blanket extensions for all registered projects on June 24, 2021. A copy of the Order providing the extension is attached here.
