Residential Solar PV Program

Danvers Electric is participating in the Municipal Light Plant Solar Rebate Program (MLP). The MLP process will be administered for DED by Energy New England (ENE). The solar program information, technical requirements and application forms for the MLP can be accessed on the ENE website.

 

Danvers Electric and the Department of Energy Resources (DOER) are pleased to offer qualifying system installations with the below prescriptive rebate:

$1.20 / watt for the first 2kW AC installed capacity ($2,400 max rebate)

 

Please note that the interconnection and application process for all qualified MLP Solar or other Distributed Generation facilities must be completed and filed with the Danvers Electric Division separately. DE will review and approve for interconnection under the terms and agreements of the department's interconnection policy.
