About this incentive

The Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources' (DOER) Leading by Example Solar-Decarbonization Grant Program aims to support the affordability of new integrated solar PV installations at state facilities that will assist Commonwealth agencies and campuses to reduce energy costs while also supporting the aggressive clean energy targets for state government operations, decarbonization goals, and grid intermittency. The Solar-Decarbonization Program provides enhanced incentives for new state solar PV deployment, battery energy storage, electric vehicle charging, and decarbonization efforts.
