  • Connecticut state and utility programs (below) still apply
  • ✅ Batteries qualify for state programs whether or not you have solar
  • ✕ No 30% federal credit for batteries placed in service after Dec 31, 2025

Connecticut State & Utility Programs

Connecticut's Energy Storage Solutions restructured on April 1, 2026: a smaller upfront enrollment incentive ($30–$130 per kWh) plus performance payments of $300–$550 per kW each year for 10 years.

Why Batteries Make Sense in Connecticut

Connecticut averages about 8 hours of grid outages a year, and a wide peak-to-off-peak price gap means time-of-use bill savings stack on top of backup value.
