Sign-on Letter Supporting ARPA Proposal for Zero Carbon Renovation Fund

Please join CHAPA in signing a letter in support of a proposed Zero Carbon Renovation Fund to allocate $250 million of the state's ARPA funds to rapidly renovate the Commonwealth’s existing buildings to zero carbon.

SIGN THE ZERO CARBON RENOVATION FUND LETTER

This Zero Carbon Renovation Fund, administered through the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center, will result in deep carbon savings by transforming our existing buildings to be super energy efficient, all electric, powered by clean renewable energy, and renovated with low-embodied carbon materials.

The fund would be available for affordable housing, public housing, low- and moderate-income homes, and municipal buildings. Zero carbon renovations will also help ensure that the Commonwealth’s most vulnerable populations benefit from a just transition off of fossil fuels.

For more information, visit the Mass Climate Action Network (MCAN) website where you will find the sign-on letter, the Zero Carbon Renovation Fund proposal, and the Google Form to sign on in support of this investment. 

This effort is being orchestrated in collaboration with many organizations, including: LISC-Boston, MACDC, CHAPA, MAPC, RMI, Massachusetts Sierra Club, Passive House Massachusetts, Acadia Center and New Ecology.
