The LEEDonline form for this credit requires us to, "Upload On-site Renewable Energy Systems...Contract and evidence of renewable attribute ownership.
- For each on-site renewable system, upload confirmation of renewable attribute ownership if the on-site renewable energy system is owned by the building owner"
Do owners of on-site PV systems who participate in utility programs where the energy produced on-site is pushed back onto the utility owned grid still qualify? We are questioning who technically owns the renewable attribute in this case.

Maybe. Who owns them would be spelled out in the contract. The attributes must be retained or retired to qualify.
