Clean Tech Fund

Supporting the Demand for Alternative Energy Technologies

The Connecticut Clean Tech Fund makes investments in seed and early-stage companies focused on innovations which conserve energy and resources, protect the environment, or eliminate harmful waste. Investments will support CI’s strategic mission. A company may receive investments of up to $1 million from the Clean Tech Fund.
Follow-on investments may be available through CI’s Eli Whitney Fund.

Clean technology includes wind power, solar power, biomass, hydropower, biofuels, information technology, green transportation, electric motors, lighting, and energy efficiency technologies. It may also be seen as a diverse range of products, services, and processes that harness renewable materials and energy sources, dramatically reduce or optimize the use of natural resources, and cut or eliminate emissions and wastes.
