Small C&I Energy Efficiency Loans
Low-Interest Loans for Commercial and Industrial Customers
This program is an innovative solution offered by the Connecticut Energy Efficiency Fund and administered by the natural gas utilities.
Financing Opportunities for Natural Gas Energy-Efficiency Projects
With support from the Energy Efficiency Fund, incentives are available to help reduce the cost of installing energy-efficient equipment; however, they do not cover the entire cost. For qualifying commercial and industrial accounts, the project costs not covered by the incentives can be financed through the Small C&I Energy Efficiency Loan program.
Who’s Eligible?
- Commercial and industrial customers in business for a minimum of three years with good credit standing
- All commercial and industrial customers qualify except for new construction or major renovation projects
How Does the Loan Program Work?
- This is a low-interest loan offered to commercial and industrial customers who implement energy-saving measures through a qualifying incentive program funded by the Energy Efficiency Fund.
- The loan must be used for the upgrading or replacement of existing equipment with high-efficiency equipment.
- The loan limits are $2,000 minimum to $250,000 maximum with subsidized low-interest financing offered on the first $100,000 of the loan. The balance can be financed at market rates.
- Financing for the Small C&I Energy Efficiency Loan program has a maximum loan term of 60 months.
