Business

MassCEC provides rebates and other incentives to businesses that are looking to adopt clean energy at their place of business.

Incentives offered by MassCEC include rebate programs for solar electricity and solar hot water and technical assistance with other technologies such as wind.

Clean Heating and Cooling

MassCEC's Clean Heating and Cooling programs offered rebates to support the installation of renewable heating, hot water and cooling technologies at buildings across the Commonwealth from 2013 to 2019. These technologies are generally more cost-effective to operate than traditional systems and reduce a building’s carbon footprint, all while maintaining a high level of comfort for its occupants. Due to funding constraints, the programs are now closed to new applications.

Ground-Source Heat Pumps (Business) - How Do I Apply?

MassCEC has different application requirements depending on your system size. A business installing a system with a heating capacity over 120,000 BTU/hr should read the instructions for the Commercial-Scale Ground-Source Heat Pump (GSHP) Program. A business installing a system with a heating capacity up to 120,000 BTU/hr should read the instructions for the Small-Scale GSHP Program.

As demonstrated by the recent Paris Climate Conference, global energy systems face a massive challenge in shifting away from unsustainable carbon-emitting fuels to sustainable sources, while serving the energy and development needs of a planet whose population will reach ten billion before the end of the century. This challenge calls for contributions from disciplines that span the full range of BU’s capabilities in research and policy analysis. At this event, faculty members engaged in a wide range of research related to sustainable energy systems and policies will discuss their current and future work.

The SEIA Solar Business Code and Complaint Resolution Process

Webinar

As part of SEIA’s consumer protection efforts, SEIA promulgated the SEIA Solar Business Code (“Code”) to further transparency and understanding in solar power transactions, while maintaining high levels of competitiveness.  The Code covers many aspects of the standard solar transaction, including advertising, sales and marketing, and contracting. SEIA also adopted a Complaint Resolution Process to resolve complaints arising from the Code. Participants will hear an overview of the Code’s rules and the Complaint Resolution Process, and have a chance to ask questions about both.

In this webinar, we'll start by providing a brief overview of SEIA’s consumer protection efforts. Building on this groundwork, we’ll dive into the SEIA Solar Business Code, and discuss the five sections: Guide Principles; Unfair, Deceptive, or Abusive Acts or Practices; Advertising; Sales and Marketing Interactions; and Contracts. We will then go over how the Complaint Resolution Process works from submitting a complaint to appealing a decision. Participants will have a chance to ask questions about the Code’s requirements and the Complaint Resolution Process.
