Connecticut faces challenges in advancing its solar energy goals as the largest utility, Eversource, hesitates to finalise contracts for state-selected solar projects due to concerns over pricing and policy uncertainty. This hesitancy casts doubt on the success of new solar procurements intended to expand clean energy capacity in the region.
