Summary

National Grid (Mass Electric) Small Business Program is for business customers with an average demand use of 200 kilowatts or less (or 40,300 kilowatt-hours or less) per month. The program aids qualifying commercial customers in installing energy efficient equipment. National Grid (Mass Electric) provides a free energy audit and report of recommended energy efficiency improvements. If company chooses to make recommended improvements, National Grid will pay 80% of the cost of the installation of energy efficient equipment.

Eligible energy efficient equipment includes: lighting upgrades, energy efficient time clocks, photo cells for outdoor lighting, occupancy sensors, programmable thermostats, and walk-in cooler measures.
