Let's Solarize Chelmsford!


Chelmsford was selected by the State on April 5, 2013 to participate in the Solarize Massachusetts program. In 2012 this program helped 749 residents and businesses in 17 towns to install solar photovoltaic (PV) technology to generate clean, renewable electricity. Discounted tiers of pricing will be offered to homeowners based on the number of enrollees. During 2012 participating customers were able to purchase solar electricity systems for 20% less than the statewide average price. 


Have you always wanted to be a Solar Volunteer? There are a variety of tasks that our solar volunteers can provide help with, such as connecting with residents or local organizations, event planning, tabling educational information, conducting research using Google Earth (to find good locations), and developing media content including artwork and writing. We expect this will require a lot of publicity over the signup period from May through September, 2013.
