PROGRAMS FOR MLP CUSTOMERS

Municipal light plants (MLPs) are electricity and/or natural gas providers that are owned, maintained, and operated by the municipality. Forty-one (41) communities in Massachusetts are served by MLPs. MLP customers are eligible for the set of energy efficiency programs provided by their MLP or associated partner programs through Energy New England (ENE) or Massachusetts Municipal Wholesale Electric Company (MMWEC).
