Mission: www.massenergy.org and www.ripower.org have several pages describing our activities and purposes.
Mass Energy Consumers Alliance (Mass Energy) is a non-profit organization that has been succeeding in making energy more affordable and environmentally sustainable since 1982. Our organization serves as a trusted voice for both consumers and the environment on local, state, regional and national energy issues.
We offer several programs for households and businesses.
Our Green Power programs, New England Wind and New England GreenStart, enable households and businesses to choose green electricity from local renewable sources that are better for the environment than fossil fuels. We also promote accessibility to residential solar power and proudly provide the general public with opportunities to explore local and renewable energy sources up close.
Our Discount Heating Oil Service provides our 14,000 members with savings of $100-300 per year on heating oil. We offer flexible service with local, full-service dealers.
Energy efficiency is key to making energy affordable and sustainable. We promote energy assessments through the Mass Save program, and offer tips to reduce energy use to our members and the general public. In addition, our Executive Director holds a seat on the state's Energy Efficiency Advisory Council and we advocate for stronger energy efficiency policy.
Our Emergency Oil Bank is a charitable program that provides free heating oil deliveries to families faced with choosing between heating and eating.
