5 Renewable Energy Employers in CT

There aren't too many renewable energy jobs in Connecticut. But we did a little digging and found 5 of the most promising companies focused on renewables. Some are hiring, some are not, but here's our top five CT green employers.

1. Alteris [website]

"The people of Alteris Renewables passionately believe that expanding our use of clean and renewable energy will help build our economy, and create a better, more sustainable lifestyle for us all. We also believe you shouldn’t have to be wealthy to afford clean energy. That’s why we do everything we can to make solar and wind energy affordable for our customers. After all, unlike oil or coal, no corporation owns the sun or wind. We simply provide the technology, experience, and service needed to make these natural and unlimited resources available to everyone."

2. Fuel Cell Energy [website]

"Based in Danbury, CT (USA), FuelCell Energy (Nasdaq: FCEL) manufactures Ultra-Clean stationary fuel cell power plants that generate electricity with up to twice the efficiency of conventional fossil fuel plants – and with virtually no air pollution. With more than 30 years of experience, we are recognized as a global leader in the manufacture and commercialization of stationary electric power generation. FuelCell Energy owns and operates a manufacturing plant in Torrington, Connecticut, with a capacity of 50 MW per year. FuelCell Energy's Danbury, Connecticut headquarters acts as the nerve center for the company's commercial, industrial, and grid-support applications. Danbury is also the hub for the company’s GTAC (Global Technical Assistance Center) which remotely monitors and operates DFC power plants worldwide."

3. Solais [website]

"Solais Lighting is a market-driven manufacturing company that has designed and built the world’s premier LED lamps with the light-output, focused-beam and full-dimming features required to replace high-efficiency halogen reflector lamps."

4. Opel Solar [website]

"It is an exciting time to be a part of the OPEL Solar experience and the rapid expansion of the global solar industry. OPEL Solar seeks to hire talented, self-starters with the desire and ability to make things happen for our business success. As a growing Company, we have selected positions open in our solar divisions. We invite you to apply to join our dynamic, innovative environment."

5. Greenleaf Biofuels [website]

"Greenleaf Biofuels is a limited liability company formed in 2004 to bring renewable energy alternatives to Americans who value preserving our natural environment and strengthening our energy security. The Company was one of the first wholesale and retail distributors of biodiesel in New England, and is now developing a regional biodiesel manufacturing facility in New Haven, CT – the largest tank farm port between New York and Boston."
