The RecessionImpact on CT Initiatives
  • Receipts for CT Energy Efficiency CT Clean
    Energy funds, collected via the Systems Benefits
    Charge on electric bills , are decreasing due to
    decline in demand and increase in customer
    arrearages
  • State Government, in order to balance its budget,
    is looking at seizing assets of various funds

5
Impact of the Stimulus CT Initiatives
  • The Stimulus still remains largely undefined
    appears to be directing little for use by CTs
    dedicated funds instead its is directing to
    other areas, such as Department of Social
    Services Community Action programs for
    distribution
  • Effectively, the Stimulus will not replace CT
    funds, but will provide additional for energy
    efficiency, renewable and new technology efforts
  • CT legislature is looking at undertaking new or
    complementary initiatives related to the
    Stimulus, thus preserving our dedicated funds

6
Possibility of New CT Initiatives?
  • Were currently not developing new initiatives,
    but preserving and forwarding existing projects
    programs
  • If all approved renewable other projects come
    on line well have met well over our needs
  • For now we have to wait see what actually
    comes to fruition
