In partnership with USDA Rural Development, Connecticut Resource Conservation & Development's CT Farm Energy Program hosted this new CT Farm Energy Geothermal Pilot Program. CFEP provided education, outreach, workshops, and renewable energy assessments specifically focused on geothermal opportunities for farms and agriculturally based rural small businesses in Connecticut. The goal of this project was to reduce barriers to alternative renewable energy resources by providing eligible farms and ag based rural small businesses with a free geothermal energy assessment and corresponding report, with no obligation to implement. If you would like to learn more about Geothermal you can download the AG Guide to Geothermal in Connecticut. The assesment portion of this project concluded in 2022.
