Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant - Residential Heat Pump & Zero-Interest Loan
Administered by Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant (TMLP)
TMLP Saves provides zero-interest loans up to $25,000 for heat pump installation plus rebates ($1,250/ton up to $5,000 for standard customers; up to $9,000 for low-income households) and up to $3,000 for weatherization if needed. Start by scheduling a free home energy audit through Energy New England, then work with a participating heat pump contractor and submit a TMLP Saves application to confirm eligibility and receive your rebate within 6-8 weeks after installation.
Participating heat pump installers can help customers access zero-interest financing and substantial rebates by ensuring equipment is on the Mass Save Heat Pump Qualified Product List and submitting required pre-approval and post-installation quality assurance forms to Abode. All installations must occur after January 1, 2026, and for whole-home projects, contractors must provide ACCA Manual J calculations to verify proper sizing.
TMLP Saves funds rebates and zero-interest loans through partnering lenders (Bristol County Savings Bank and Taunton Federal Credit Union) for ground-source and cold-climate air-source heat pumps installed after January 1, 2026. The program targets residential TMLP customers, with enhanced rebate amounts for low-and moderate-income households (verified via IRS tax transcripts or fuel assistance eligibility), and requires intake through free energy audits, contractor pre-approval, and post-installation quality assurance managed by Abode before rebate disbursement.
