Eligibility
SREC eligibility is determined by the Department of Energy Resources (DOER). Please visit their Solar Carve-Out website for more information.
Production Reporting Timing Requirements
Production must be reported to PTS monthly in order to remain SREC compliant. The reporting window is open for 10 days each month: the last 5 days of the month through the first 5 days of the following month. Reporting can occur at any point during this 10-day window. Not reporting metered data during the reporting period may result in forfeiture of SRECs that would have otherwise been generated during the unreported period.
Meter Requirements
All generation from qualified solar projects participating in the SREC market must be individually metered and production must be reported to the PTS. NEPOOL GIS Rule 2.5(j) states that only "revenue grade" (also called "revenue quality") meters tested and certified to ANSI C-12 standards are allowed to report generation data. Please reference MassCEC's approved meter list. To apply to have a new revenue grade meter added to MassCEC’s approved meter list, please fill out the meter application and submit it to pts@masscec.com.
Data Acquisition System (DAS) Service Provider Requirements
For projects less than or equal to 25 kilowatts (kW) DC, data can be reported manually or automatically to the PTS. This requirement was modified from 10 kW DC effective January 2022.
For projects greater than 25 kW DC, data must be reported automatically through a Data Acquisition System (DAS) to the PTS. A list of approved Data Acquisition System (DAS) Service Providers is available. To apply to become an approved DAS Provider, please fill out the DAS application and submit it to pts@masscec.com.
