Welcome to CEAB


Public Act 07-242, An Act Concerning Electricity and Energy Efficiency, (View Excerpts.) reconstituted the Connecticut Energy Advisory Board (CEAB) and modified its mission as of June 2007. However, the primary goal for this board remains to encourage competing energy solutions and to provide the opportunity to review multiple energy solutions simultaneously.

The CEAB is responsible for representing the state in regional energy planning, participating in the state's annual load forecast proceeding, and reviewing the procurement plan submitted by electric distribution companies.

          2007  Plan



Governor Rell has announced the launch of the OneThing campaign, a new, statewide marketing effort that will help residents save on their energy bills and make a positive contribution to the environment. A comprehensive web site, www.onethingct.com, will serve as the cornerstone of the effort. To view the site which is still being further developed, click on the link or the logo above.

CEAB Guiding Principles


Citizens and businesses in Connecticut must have access to a safe, affordable, diverse and reliable energy supply.

Connecticut's policy makers must act in forums where the state's energy interests can be advanced.

Connecticut's policy makers must act in a coordinated fashion on both a state and regional basis to address energy issues.
