Background and History of the EEP Program

The Connecticut EEP Program was established by Section 94 of Public Act 07-242 (the Act). The primary intention of the Act is to reduce demand for electricity, particularly peak demand, based on the use of demand-side technology. Under the Act, entities may apply to PURA for participation in certain aspects of the EEP Program.
