The intent of the funding is to enable the ultimate owners of the renewable energy systems to break even on their investment over the life of the equipment and earn a fair and reasonable return on investment compared to purchasing the equivalent amount of power from an electric utility company. CCEF Acting President Dale Hedman, says, "The new program funding and competitive review process allow us to build on the progress we have made to date supporting the installation of over renewable energy generating systems at commercial sites throughout Connecticut.

Eligible applicants include for-profit companies, nonprofit organizations, municipalities, and state and federal government agencies. Businesses and institutions may apply for funding under the Best of Class category.

Evaluation of proposals will place strong emphasis on the financial feasibility of proposed projects as well as the ability of applicants to complete construction of projects in a timely manner. A growing focus of U. Local sources of renewables are driving technology options; photovoltaic arrays to capture solar energy, turbines to harness wind energy, and combined heat and power systems and boilers fueled by biogas and biomass are all deployed by U.

Many of the leaders in renewable installations are also hail from the ranks of the Better Buildings and Better Plants programs, as a recent report by SEIA has 6 partners in the top 10 companies by solar capacity see image to right.

While renewable energy facilities are more visible in residential and utility settings, it can be seen at many of the most vital industries, largest employers, urban centers, and campuses in the United States. A multitude of Better Plants partners use renewable energy to supply heat or power to some of their key plants, and have experienced significant reductions in source energy consumption as a result.

The interactive FEMP Screening Map shows renewable energy resources and economic calculations for photovoltaic, solar ventilation preheating, and solar water heating technologies.

To help agencies assess the viability of on-site distributed energy projects, the Federal Energy Management Program FEMP offers a variety of renewable energy resource maps and screening tools. Renewable energy is available throughout the United States but resources vary greatly depending on location and microclimate.
