Solar Moonshot Program Grantee
Plymouth Area Renewable Energy Initiative
"Thanks in part to Hammond Climate Solutions Foundation, we finally have our own solar PV panels on our roof! Hammond Climate Solutions Foundation’s Solar Moonshot Program made it possible for us to cross the finish line and install a 10.6kW solar photovoltaic array on our office building. As a nonprofit organization striving to build a more sustainable community, the financial savings from the solar array reduces our operational costs allowing us to put more time and energy into meeting the needs of our community. Coupled with installing the solar array, we replaced our kerosene heating system with energy efficiency heat pumps with the goal of being a net-zero energy building. We are also grateful for the Solar Moonshot Program’s bridge loan so we can take advantage of the federal tax credit Elective Pay option.”
