The Renewable Energy Resource Center (RERC) supports market development for solar hot water and solar electric systems in Vermont. Our main objectives are: 1. To provide consumers with high quality, unbiased information on system options, and on the environmental and financial benefits associated with renewable energy. 2. To help consumers make informed decisions, and identify qualified equipment vendors and installation professionals. 3. To help consumers identify financing options for the purchase and installation of a renewable energy system. The RERC is a project of the Vermont Energy Investment Corporation, a non-profit organization committed to affordable and clean energy solutions. The RERC receives funding through the Vermont State Department of Public Services as a partner of the Department of Energy Million Solar Roofs Initiative and from the Department of Energy's Golden Field Office, through their support for the Development of Markets for Solar Water Heating Systems.
