Updates from Vineyard Power and Cape Light Compact

We are so lucky to have two amazing community organizations that specialize in Energy Transformation, Vineyard Power and the Cape Light Compact (CLC). Have a look at some of the progress they’re making:

  • Vineyard Power and the Cape Light Compact (CLC) launched an initiative in September whereby Vineyard Power pledged to donate up to $200,000 a year for the CLC to distribute among CLC income eligible ratepayers on the Vineyard. This donation will deliver savings totaling between $300-400 every year to these rate payers.
  • In 2022, the Cape Light Compact has supported the installation of 33 heat pumps and 21 heat pump hot water heaters for low income residences Vineyard Power conducted over 60 outreach events and launched an Energy Coach program that offers Vineyard residents easy to schedule, no-cost, 30-minute sessions with one of their coaches on solar, EVs, and/or buildings. To date, they have recorded approximately 30 coaching sessions. Roughly 20% of those are building coach sessions. Roughly 20% of them are EV coach meetings. Thus far, about 60% of them have been related to solar.
  • Vineyard Power developed a comprehensive EV resources page and FAQs page including important buying information and “how-to” access rebates and tax credits.
  • Vineyard Power has become an Associate Member of the Martha’s Vineyard Builders Association to share resources and training on Stretch Code modifications and new incentives from CLC.
