Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Cape Light Compact energy rebates and Mass Save programs.

What makes Cape Light Compact different from other Massachusetts utilities?

Cape Light Compact is a municipal aggregation representing 21 towns on Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard. Unlike investor-owned utilities, CLC is community-owned and focuses on renewable energy and energy efficiency. CLC customers have full access to Mass Save rebates plus additional local programs like Green Communities Solar.

Is Cape Light Compact part of Mass Save?

Yes, Cape Light Compact is a Mass Save partner utility. This means all CLC customers have access to Mass Save rebates including heat pump incentives up to $16,000, free home energy assessments, 0% HEAT Loan financing, and income-qualified programs.

How do I schedule a free home energy assessment on Cape Cod or Martha's Vineyard?

Call Mass Save at 1-866-527-7283 or visit MassSave.com to schedule your free Home Energy Assessment. Have your Cape Light Compact account number ready. Assessments are available year-round, though scheduling may take longer during peak summer months due to high demand.

Are there special considerations for island (Martha's Vineyard) installations?

Yes, Martha's Vineyard installations may involve additional logistics for equipment delivery and contractor availability. However, all Mass Save rebates apply equally to island residents. Some island-based contractors are Mass Save certified, and mainland contractors regularly work on the Vineyard.

What heating systems are common on Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard?

Many Cape and island homes use oil, propane, or electric resistance heating, which are expensive to operate. These homes benefit most from heat pump conversions and qualify for the highest rebates. Older Cape-style homes may also benefit significantly from insulation upgrades.

Does Cape Light Compact offer any programs beyond Mass Save?

Yes, Cape Light Compact offers additional programs including Green Communities Solar incentives, community solar options, and special programs for low-income residents. CLC also provides 100% renewable electricity options for customers who want to further reduce their carbon footprint.
