Electric Division Offers Full List of Renewable Energy Incentive Programs

The Wallingford Electric Division, a municipal electric distribution facility serving the communities of Wallingford and Northford, offers an extensive list of available funds intended to support the installation of renewable energy equipment and facilities to its customers. Below are the lists of programs available for incentives.

For residential customers:

  • Solar photo voltaic (PV).

  • Solar-thermal.

  • Geothermal.

  • Green energy certificates.

For commercial and industrial customers:

  • On-site distributed generation (projects that generate electricity via solar photo voltaic, wind, fuel cells, biomass, landfill gas and/or river flows).

  • Solar-thermal.

  • Geothermal.

  • Green energy certificates.


Any qualified renewable energy project completed on or after October 9, 2009 is eligible to receive appropriate funding from the sources described below. All renewable energy funding available through these programs shall be on a first-come, first-served basis and is subject to the availability of funds. These programs are administered through, and with the assistance of, the Connecticut Municipal Electric Energy Cooperative (CMEEC) and the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund (CCEF). Any renewable energy program or incentive offered by the Wallingford Electric Division is intended to be identical to those offered by the CCEF.


The funding for these programs comes from non-ratepayer sources and includes, but is not limited to:

  • CCEF funds designated for statewide use to fund solar, thermal and geothermal projects.

  • Wallingford Electric’s share of CMEEC’ portion of CCEF funds designated for solar photo voltaic projects.

  • Wallingford Electric’s share of CMEEC’s ongoing Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) auction proceeds on hand at CCEF.

  • Wallingford Electric’s share of CMEEC’s ongoing Independent System Operator of New England (ISO-NE) forward capacity market proceeds. ISO-NE is the regional entity responsible for the operation of the electric bulk power system.


Wallingford Electric Division customers interested in renewable energy projects for their homes or businesses should first review the available and applicable offerings listed on the CCEF website at www.ctcleanenergy.com. CCEF can also be contacted by phone at 860-563-0015. Customers who then wish to pursue a renewable energy project should contact Michael Cassella, Director of Energy Efficiency Services for CMEEC, at 860-425-3218.
