About this file

This document is the Statement of Interest form for the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources' (DOER) Leading by Example (LBE) Decarbonization Grant Program for State Entities. The program provides grant funding to Massachusetts state agencies, public institutions of higher education, and quasi-public authorities to implement projects that electrify space heating, water heating, landscaping equipment, and commercial kitchen equipment. Eligible applicants must submit the completed form along with a proposal detailing project costs. Projects must meet specific performance standards and be located in Suffolk County or the City of Boston. The grant program offers a base grant amount as well as additional adders for projects located in disadvantaged communities and for pollinator habitat creation. Applicants must apply for or agree to apply for available external funding sources, such as utility incentives, prior to submitting the grant application. The program has a deadline of June 30, 2027 or until funds are exhausted, whichever comes first, and the total available funding is $2,450,000.

The grant program is focused on supporting the Commonwealth's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and transition to clean energy technologies across state government operations. Eligible applicants must comply with the DOER's Alternative Portfolio Standard, ENERGY STAR, and Mass Save specifications, unless a waiver is obtained. The program also encourages applicants to ensure their projects are eligible for applicable clean energy tax credits. Grantees will be responsible for federal reporting requirements, including Davis-Bacon compliance, as the program uses federal funding subject to the Build America, Buy America Act.
