CT RPS Policy Objectives

During the 2010 Integrated Resource Planning process, a number of challenges and issues were raised with respect to the impact of the current RPS policies, in particular on their outlook for success, their impact on electric ratepayers, the environmental and security performance of the electric system, the market for renewable energy, and other societal costs and benefits. On April 11, 2011 The Connecticut Energy Advisory Board Renewable Portfolio Standards Sub-Committee conducted  discussions on current Connecticut RPS Policy Objectives.  View afternoon roundtables.
