Hey Shrewsbury! To celebrate the month of February, we are featuring three sustainability programs you can “fall in love” with! Shrewsbury residents can take advantage of several initiatives that make it easier to live sustainably, lower energy bills, and contribute to a cleaner environment. Whether you’re looking to upgrade your home with energy-efficient products, go solar, or support renewable energy, these programs have something for everyone. Here’s an overview of three key initiatives:
1. SELCO Energy Conservation & Electrification Rebates
SELCO Rebates Library provide residents with rebates on energy-efficient products and services, including smart thermostats, energy-efficient appliances, and heat pumps. These upgrades help reduce energy consumption, lower electricity bills, and reduce home and business greenhouse gas emissions. Participating in these programs is an affordable way to improve the efficiency of your home while saving money.
How to Access:

2. SELCO 0% Electrification Loan Program
Shrewsbury residents can install solar panels with the help of SELCO’s 0% Electrification Loan Program. This program allows you to save money on electricity bills by using clean, renewable energy while reducing your carbon footprint. Net metering is also included, which gives you credit for any excess solar energy you generate. If you pair your home solar with a compatible battery storage device, you can receive a $100/kWh rebate!
How to Access:
- Visit the SELCO website.
- Learn about the loan program and process to connect your solar array to SELCO’s distribution system (download the handy Solar Guide!)
- Follow the steps to apply for the program and start your solar journey.
3. SELCO Green Light Renewable Energy Program
The SELCO Green Light program lets residents support renewable energy by upgrading their power plan to include a higher percentage of power generated from renewables. This program allows you to ensure your electricity comes from 100% renewable sources like wind and solar, making it easy to contribute to environmental sustainability without having to install solar panels or other systems at home.
How to Access:
