Solarize Simsbury Kickoff Workshop

The Town of Simsbury has been selected to participate in a
unique solar discount program that makes going solar easy and affordable. The
town joins 11 other communities in Phase 4 of Solarize Connecticut, which
expects to more than double the amount of solar currently in Simsbury during the
20-week program. Also participating in the program are Bloomfield, Brookfield,
East Lyme, Essex, Farmington, a coalition of Haddam and Killingworth,
Montville, Tolland, Torrington, and Weston.



Solarize is a unique program offered by CEFIA (Connecticut
Energy Financing and Investment Authority) in partnership with SmartPower that
increases residential solar through a proven formula. It leverages group
discounts through a pre-selected installer to reduce the cost of solar; it
relies on the community to provide outreach and education to create awareness
and build interest, and it promotes a clear end date to motivate residents to
act. Over the past several weeks, town officials have been interviewing
installers and have formally selected C-TEC Solar of Simsbury to be part of the
Solarize Simsbury program and to perform the solar installations.



Residents who are interested in learning more about Solarize
Simsbury are urged to attend the kickoff workshop at Eno Memorial Hall April 29.
In order to participate in the discounts offered through the program, residents
must sign a contract by September 23, 2014.
