Energy Efficiency Resources

Prior to receiving the rebate payment from MTC, rebate applicants must meet minimum energy efficiency requirements described in Section 3.4 of the Commonwealth Solar Program Manual.

MTC and DOER strongly encourage applicants to explore implementation of energy efficiency measures, in addition to their PV project, as a way to provide greater energy savings at the project site. For more information on local energy efficiency audits and programs available to Commonwealth Solar applicants, please visit your investor-owned utility’s website, or MassSAVE (which is geared toward residential customers):
