The Connecticut Clean Energy Fund's (CCEF) solar
photovoltaic (PV) program offers qualified installers monetary
incentives that will be passed on to customers in the form of
rebates. This program has supported residential, non-profit, and
governmental installations from 2004 to 2008. In 2009, the program
is only available to residential customers in service territories
of United Illuminating Company or Connecticut Light & Power.
The rebate level for residential systems is $1.75/watt (W) (PTC
rating)* for the first five kilowatts (kW) and $1.25 for the next
five kW, with the payment adjusted based on expected system
performance. The funding cap is $15,000 per project. Factors
considered in calculating the rebate include: PV panel selection,
inverter efficiency, system orientation and tilt, and shading on
the site.
* PTC is the acronym for PVUSA Test Conditions.
