Energy Resilience Construction Grants

This RFP solicits proposals from eligible entities to design and construct projects that improve the resilience of Connecticut’s electric grid against disruptive events, including extreme weather, wildfires, natural disasters, and other outage-related conditions. The RFP uses a combination of Federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) §40101(d) formula funding, state bond cost match funding authorized under C.G.S. §16 243y, and Federal SEP BIL funding to support resilience-focused infrastructure upgrades and distributed energy resource deployments statewide. The RFP establishes a competitive selection process to award grants ranging from $10,000 to $6 million, with total funding availability of up to approximately $24 million across federal and state sources.
