The City of Cambridge has partnered with the nonprofit All In Energy to connect renters, landlords and homeowners in buildings with 1-4 units to energy-savings programs that can help you upgrade your apartments and buildings and reduce your energy bills - all at no-cost.
Limited Time Opportunity! The sponsors of the Mass Save® are offering 100% off approved insulation that is recommended during energy assessments for a limited time for all rental units in 1-4 unit buildings. Single family homeowners and single unit/condo owners can get 75-100% off approved insulation, based on income. More details below.
Who can participate? If you pay a utility bill, you are eligible! Whether you rent or own, one unit or a whole 1-4 unit building, you can get a no-cost home energy assessment. This is an important opportunity for all of us to work together to ensure that Cambridge residents are receiving the full benefits of the statewide Mass Save program, which is funded through an “energy efficiency” charge on our monthly utility bills and administered by your electric and natural gas provider, Eversource.
You may qualify for greater energy- and cost-saving benefits through Cambridge's CAP agency (nonprofit), CAPIC, rather than the Mass Save program based on your income or your tenants' income if you own a building.Learn more here.
How does it work? To start, we encourage you to request a No-Cost Home Energy Assessment. The assessment is performed by a Mass Save home performance contractor.
All you need is to schedule your Home Energy Assessment and a Mass Save home performance contractor will conduct the audit and install the eligible energy-saving measures. Virtual options are available upon request if preferred.
