Verogy and NJR Clean Energy Ventures break ground on Connecticut community solar project

Verogy, a West Hartford-based solar developer, and NJR Clean Energy Ventures (CEV), the renewable energy subsidiary of New Jersey Resources, today celebrated the groundbreaking of Glastonbury Solar One, a 3-MW community solar project located in Glastonbury, Connecticut. This marks the first project under construction from the strategic partnership between the two organizations announced in October 2024 to develop solar and solar + battery energy storage projects across the Northeast.

Glastonbury Solar One is part of a portfolio of 18 projects in advanced stages of development spanning Connecticut, Maine, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. This suite of projects totals over 52 MW in capacity. Once completed, the projects are expected to collectively generate enough to power more than 7,400 U.S. homes.

“The groundbreaking of Glastonbury Solar One symbolizes a significant step forward in our partnership with CEV,” said Will Herchel, CEO of Verogy. “This project exemplifies our shared commitment to expanding equitable clean energy access, supporting local communities, and driving sustainable development.”

Glastonbury Solar One is located on a 15-acre site and is being developed as part of Connecticut’s Shared Clean Energy Facility (SCEF) program. SCEF, administered by the Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection (DEEP), is designed to expand access to solar energy benefits for residents and businesses unable to install rooftop solar systems. Subscribers will receive monthly credits on their electricity bills, providing annual savings, particularly for low- and moderate-income households.
