About Energy

While the energy and climate challenges we face as a state and a nation appear daunting, we have many tools and programs which, when fully deployed, will enable substantial progress. Here in Massachusetts we are well positioned to mobilize solutions for these challenges and unleash our fullest potential.

One solution with high impact is energy efficiency. Massachusetts' historically high cost of energy and our innovative people have combined to establish us as a leader in energy efficiency, the best cost-containment tool we have. Efficiency is a proven, reliable, and extremely valuable tool for building a greener energy future. It is also a tool that we can quickly deploy to reinvest in our homes and businesses and, in the longer term, put Massachusetts at the hub of a 21st century global clean energy economy.

We are at this very moment in the process of transforming Massachusetts' efficiency infrastructure.
