New Application Window:
October 26th, 2010 - November 23rd, 2010

The application window will close promptly at 11:59pm on Tuesday November 23rd, 2010.  The RET Vendor List Application Website will no longer accept new registrants to the application process or application submissions at this time.

Note:  Depending on the products and/or services a vendor intends to offer, and a vendor’s current standing with respect to the RET Vendor List qualification criteria, gathering and submitting the information necessary to qualify for the RET Vendor List may take anywhere from 3 hours to 3 weeks.

Application Process for Existing RET Vendors

RET Vendors who qualified for the RET Vendor List during the first application window and are still on the RET Vendor List to date do not need to re-register in order to add products or services to their existing product/service offering.  Please submit a request using the My RET Vendor Messaging Center and the RET Vendor List Team will provide you with the guidance needed to qualify your company with respect to that product or service. 

Step 1
The first step to applying to the RET Vendor List is making sure that the products and/or services you offer fall within the scope of the RET Vendor List initiative.

1. Do you supply or manufacture any of the following components for any of the accepted renewable energy technologies?

• Solar Photovoltaic: Modules*; Inverters
• Solar Air: Solar Air Collectors
• Solar Water: Solar Water Collectors
• Geothermal: Ground Source Heat Pumps
• Small Wind: Turbines

*Modules: cells contained within a supporting apparatus, complete with electrical harness and mounting capability

2. Do you install or act as a single point of contact contractor for the installation of any of the renewable energy technology components mentioned in the question above?

If you answered yes to either or both of the questions above, then you are ready to move onto the next step in the application process.

Note:  Companies that strictly supply consulting services, or strictly supply/manufacture and/or contract/install components not listed above, are not eligible for the RET Vendor List.

Step 2
Once you have determined that you offer the necessary products and/or services to qualify for the RET Vendor List, the next step is to determine if you currently meet, or are willing to meet, the criteria necessary to qualify for the RET Vendor List.  You must also agree to the Vendor Application Agreement.
