Pomfret solar
deadline extended
POMFRT — The Solarize Pomfret program is extending its deadline to Sept. 30 so that Pomfret residents have more time to take advantage of the discounted pricing for solar. This extension allows homeowners to purchase a solar installation to offset their electricity bill, either in whole or in part, depending on the size of the system they install.
A final solar workshop will be from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Sept. 13 at the Pomfret Community Senior Center. Residents can learn about solar and the various financing options available through Sunlight Solar. There is a 30 percent tax credit on residential solar and the CT Green Bank still gives an incentive for solar. Solar installations still qualify for net metering, making solar a sound investment.
First Selectman Maureen Nicholson explained the extension, “Solarize Pomfret is a great opportunity for residents to ‘Go Solar.’ We wanted to extend the deadline so people who have been busy during the summer can still take advantage of the no-charge solar site evaluation to determine their possible savings. The program has selected a trustworthy, certified solar installer that will provide high quality equipment at a reduced price. By using efficient, renewable energy that reduces energy consumption and environmental pollutants we are conserving our environment for future generations.” For more info go to: This email address is being protected from spambots.
