In 1997, the Arizona Corporation Commission approved Arizona Public Service's (APS) green pricing tariff to develop 400 kW of centralized, grid connected photovoltaic systems. APSí initial Solar Partners pilot program made power from photovoltaic systems available to customers in the Flagstaff area, but participation has been opened up to the entire state due to the program's popularity. The program has now been expanded to include commercial as well as residential customers. APS now has 1 MW of installed solar generating capacity and will add another MW in 2001.
