Bill > H2713

This bill aims to establish oil heat energy efficiency programs in Massachusetts. It introduces a systems benefit assessment of $0.025 per gallon on all gallons of oil heat fuel sold for residential or commercial use in the state. The funds collected from this assessment will be used by program administrators, under the guidance of the Energy Efficiency Advisory Council, to design, market, and provide cost-effective energy efficiency programs for residential and commercial customers who use oil heat fuel. At least 20% of the funds must be spent on comprehensive low-income residential oil heat energy efficiency and education programs. The bill also requires the program administrators to incorporate oil heat energy efficiency programs into their energy efficiency investment plans, and the Energy Efficiency Advisory Council to provide annual reports on the use of the funds and the resulting energy savings and greenhouse gas emissions benefits.
