VEU C&I Solar Activity 47 Apartment Buildings Clarification

VEU Email received 5 Nov 2025

Question: " An apartment building with two NMIs - one NMI that services the Common Areas, and another that services the individual apartments. Would a system be eligible that is connected to the common area NMI? Or are apartment buildings as a rule ineligible? "
 

Answer:

VEU Response:

Under the C&I solar activity, the installation of solar PV system in an apartment building is ineligible to create VEECs.
To be eligible, the activity must:

  • be undertaken at a non-residential premises or site that is grid-connected.
  • not be undertaken at:
    • a building that is classified as a Class 2 building (i.e. multi-unit residential buildings, e.g. apartment building).
    • at a 'scheduled activity premises' as defined in Regulation 4 of the VEET Regulations, unless it has been 'opted in' to the program as described in Regulation 28.

You may consider the measurement and verification method for project-based activities as an available option for upgrades that are not eligible under the deemed C&I solar activity.
