 Have we emphasized how incredibly large the rebates are right now?
We can't resist sharing the news. As Larry Chreiten, Director of Green Energy Consumers Alliance, said, "You are not going to find rebates like this anywhere else in the country." Below is the recording and slides from Senator Creem and Green Energy Consumers Alliance's webinar on the federal and state electrification incentives.
 Big News!!
Both Wellesley’s Municipal Light Plant and the state’s MassSave Program have increased the amount of money a homeowner can get for home energy efficiency improvements. MASS SAVE REBATES If you live in a one to four unit home and get a bill from National Grid (for example, if you heat your home with natural gas or you have a gas fireplace or stove), then you are eligible for the larger rebates from MassSave. Before you can qualify for these rebates or incentives, you must schedule and complete a no-cost home energy assessment with an authorized Mass Save® home assessment contractor such as HomeWorks. Special financing options are also available through Mass Save®, including a” HEAT Loan”: 0% financing for qualified individuals. WELLESLEY MUNICIPAL LIGHT PLANT (WMLP) REBATES If you are NOT a National Grid customer, the WMLP’s new rebates are for you.
