Solarize Torrington is a unique discount buying program that uses a tiered-pricing structure, town-supported education and outreach and one competitively selected installer, Astrum Solar, to dramatically reduce the cost of solar. The more residents sign up for Solarize, the more the cost comes down. All contracts must be signed by September 16 to participate.
