NEW Pilot: The Small-Scale Renewable Energy Incentive Program is launching an income-eligible “Heating with Biodiesel” Pilot in October 2022. The Pilot is designed to offer assistance for income-eligible customers to reduce energy/utility costs with grants for the use of (and costs for inspection and minor modifications to convert to) B99 biodiesel heating fuel.

  • Low- and Moderate Income (≤120% AMI) – one-third (1/3) of current market price for B99 biodiesel ($/gallon) up to $1000 + $300 heating system inspection incentive = $1300 total incentive
