Your home’s heating and hot water systems, shell insulation, appliances, windows, doors, and lighting will all be evaluated.

It seems like everyone is touting the benefits of power from the sun these days. Here in Braintree, several of BELD’s residential and commercial customers have photovoltaic (PV) systems. The Light Department itself has partnered with the Town of Braintree to commission a 1.26-megawatt PV array at the Covanta Transfer Station, which delivers power directly to BELD’s electric distribution system. BELD Community Solar lets you get solar benefits if your roof isn’t suitable—or if you don’t have your own roof.

Visit BELD’s website for more information and program requirements. Contact the Energy Advisor at rslater@beld.com to sign up or for more information.
