Recharge Rockland is focused on helping Rockland residents and business owners take advantage of incentive money for electrification and energy efficiency.
Energy efficient buildings are more comfortable and less expensive to heat and cool. Electrified transportation is quieter and less expensive to operate. Both reduce our community’s climate impact.
Current State and federal financial incentives are reducing the upfront costs of electrification and weatherization, making it a great time for Rockland to recharge.
