Connecticut Utility Energy Efficiency

• Connecticut’s restructuring legislation created an energy conservation fund for energy efficiency programs, funded by a charge on all electricity sold by the state's two IOUs.  Spending for low-income energy efficiency programs totaled about $5.4 million in 2006, mostly through the low-income weatherization network. The low- income programs offer weatherization, energy efficient lighting, domestic hot water measures, heating system repairs and replacement of high energy use refrigerators to income-eligible households.
