Comprehensive Climate Action Plan (CCAP)

DEEP is developing a Comprehensive Climate Action Plan (CCAP) to assess potential pathways for Connecticut to meet its economy-wide greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction goals through 2050. The CCAP will serve as a roadmap, outlining specific measures and implementation actions that Connecticut can pursue to achieve its emission reduction goals, provide cost savings, and increase community resilience.

Climate Action Plan Survey

The Climate Action Plan Survey is now closed. However, DEEP will continue accepting written comments and questions via the deep.climatechange@ct.gov email address. Additionally, the survey questions are still available for viewing in the PDF posted below.

CCAP Sector Profiles

The CCAP Sector Profiles provide an overview of each sector's historical and projected greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions under a business-as-usual scenario, the GHG reduction measures identified for each sector, and example implementation actions for each measure. The actions presented are illustrative and remain under development. They do not constitute formal recommendations from DEEP.

• A GHG reduction measure is a specific, tangible initiative to reduce emissions.
• An implementation action is an activity to implement a measure and realize the associated emission reduction and benefits.

Regional Climate Action Plans

In addition to the State, three of Connecticut's Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) also received funding to develop Comprehensive Climate Action Plans (posted below). Additional plans from the Mohegan Tribe, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, and the Worcester, Massachusetts MSA (which includes part of northeastern Connecticut) will also be posted here once they become available. All of their Priority Climate Action Plans can be found on EPA's website.
