Renewable Energy Solutions Interconnections

Information for installers interconnecting residential and non-residential projects in Connecticut for Renewable Energy Solutions

What is Renewable Energy Solutions?

Renewable Energy Solutions is a Connecticut incentive program for solar and other renewable energy launching in 2022. Through this program, customers can sell power generated and any renewable energy certificates (RECs) to Eversource.

Note: If a customer applied to install solar before January 1, 2022, they are participating in the Net Metering Program.

Residential Interconnections

System installers or their authorized agents are responsible for applying to the program on behalf of system owners and customers of record.

This application process is a part of the interconnection process, but additional information is required. We review the program and interconnection applications at the same time. After reviewing the program guidelines and completing the required forms, you may apply for interconnection.

Through Residential Renewable Energy Solutions, Connecticut customers can offset the cost of the electricity with energy generated with solar or other renewable energy technologies.
