The Connecticut Green Bank’s Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) provided a $372,466 low-interest loan for the project, which the Y said will help keep the water in its showers hot during peak usage times and allow for more funding for providing kids camp scholarships and memberships to low-income families.
Southington’s Emendee Technologies was the energy consultant for the project.
