As part of a three-town coalition with Concord and Carlisle, Lincoln has been accepted into the state-sponsored HeatSmart program. From March through July, residents can purchase advanced air-source and ground-source heat pumps and wood pellet heating systems from installers selected for their high-quality work and competitive pricing. These clean heating and cooling technologies can greatly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, reduce your energy costs, and improve the comfort of homes.
There will be an information session on Wednesday, March 21 at 6:30 p.m. in Bemis Hall where residents can learn about the program and meet selected installers. There will also be sessions on Sunday, March 11 at 1:30 p.m. at Concord-Carlisle High School and Wednesday, March 14 at 7 p.m. in Carlisle Town Hall. Anyone with questions may email HeatSmartLincoln@gmail.com. For more information about HeatSmart or to sign up for program notices, visit HeatSmartCCL.org.
HeatSmart is similar to Solarize Mass in that it’s designed to educate and promote greener heating and cooling options. Lincoln previously joined Sudbury and Wayland in Solarize LSW to get discounts on installations of solar photovoltaic (PV) and solar hot water systems.
HeatSmart Carlisle/Concord/Lincoln is supported by the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center; the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources; and volunteers and staff from the towns of Carlisle, Concord and Lincoln.
