Governor Rell announced on October 14, 2009 that Connecticut residents can now take advantage of a state rebate for installing solar hot water panels on any residential or non-residential building. The state has set aside $4 million in stimulus money to fund the rebates. The funds will be administered by the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund (CCEF) which estimates that the money will fund 600 resdential and 120 non-residential hot water systems.
