Board approves Power Purchase Agreement with CT Green Bank for two Branford solar arrays
Summary
Branford’s Board of Finance approved an advisory review and authorized a Power Purchase Agreement with CT Green Bank for solar arrays at Branford High School and the Police Department following a brief overview from First Selectman Joshua Brook.
The Branford Board of Finance voted May 18 to approve a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) between the Town and CT Green Bank to develop two solar array projects, one at Branford High School and one at the Police Department.
First Selectman Joshua Brook provided a brief overview and said the item was submitted for advisory review under Chapter 42 of the Town Code. Alfred Bertoline moved to approve the PPA; Yvette Larrieu seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
The minutes record the board’s advisory approval but do not include the PPA’s financial terms, expected energy production, contract length, or projected savings. The board’s action was advisory pursuant to the cited town code section and does not by itself finalize construction or interconnection milestones; subsequent contractual or regulatory steps will be required before installation and operation.
The project sites named in the minutes are Branford High School and the Police Department; the record identifies CT Green Bank as the private partner but provides no further project details in the meeting minutes.
