ZREC – Zero-Emission Renewable Energy Credits
The state’s Zero Emission Renewable Energy Credit (ZREC) program has been the prime driver of the commercial solar market in Connecticut, providing a fifteen-year revenue stream for owners of solar energy systems, in addition to the value of reduced utility bills. The ZREC program is administered by the utilities, and in 2016, Eversource’s budget for ZREC projects can support around 80 MW of installed solar capacity. The ZREC program is for commercial, municipal, and industrial projects sized from 25 to 2,000 kW.
C-PACE – Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy
The C-PACE program, administered by the CT Green Bank, helps property owners access affordable financing for renewable energy systems and repay the investment through an additional charge (“assessment”) along with their property tax bill. C-PACE offers no upfront costs to upgrade your building, 20-year funding, no payoff upon sale, and the ability to share costs and benefits with any tenants your business may have. Ultimately, the program has significantly helped commercial properties decrease their energy costs, making going solar in Connecticut all the more attractive.
Additional Incentives
Connecticut has adopted additional incentives to motivate solar adoption including an exemption from sales and property taxes, and a favorable net metering policy which allows solar energy to “spin your meter backwards” and earn credit for solar energy sent to the utility grid during peak solar hours. Coupled with a 30% federal investment tax credit and accelerated depreciation benefits, this combination of incentives makes for a smart, winning financial investment for CT building owners.
