The Renewable Energy (Electricity) Regulations 2001 have been amended to expand eligibility for solar PV systems under the Small-Scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) from 100 kW to 1 MW.
Small-scale technology certificates (STCs) can be created within 12 months of the installation of an eligible system. See create STCs for more information.
Use the calculator below to see the number of STCs your mid-scale solar system (100 KW to 1 MW) may be eligible for. This calculator is provided as a guide only.
Use our 2 other calculators to determine approximate STC eligibility for:
- other small-scale systems including small-scale solar (up to 100 KW), solar batteries and small-scale wind and hydro using the small-generation unit STC calculator
- solar water heaters and air source heat pumps using the solar water heater calculator.
See mid-scale solar for more information.

The mid-scale solar calculator is designed to assist you to determine the approximate number of STCs your system may be eligible for under the SRES. It is a guide only.
You should be aware of the following:
- The calculator does not consider all of the variables which may affect the calculation of the STCs for an installation.
- The calculator is based on data which may be updated from time to time and therefore results using the calculator may vary over time.
- In order to accurately calculate the number of STCs that can be created for an installation, you will need to consult the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act 2000 and the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Regulations.
