Energy-Efficiency Opportunity

Energize CT and local utilities Eversource and United Illuminating are administering a survey to collect information on energy use in Connecticut’s agricultural sector. Please be on the lookout for postcards (see image above) sent to your location. Individuals that complete the survey will receive a $50 digital gift card. The information collected in this survey will help your utility and the State of Connecticut develop energy efficiency programs to better serve farms and agribusinesses like yours.
If you received a postcard but no longer have it in your possession, please call 1-800-454-5070 to collect your unique invitation code.
