Green Buildings for Massachusetts

March 17, 2002 – Vol.6 No.51

GREEN BUILDINGS FOR MASSACHUSETTS.

From the $150 million in the Renewable Energy Trust bank account, the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative (MTC) will dole out $14.6 million to spur the development of buildings in the state that are energy efficient and incorporate renewable energy technologies such as photovoltaic solar or passive heating and cooling.

To be distributed in awards of up to $500,000 each, funds can be used for design and construction assistance. Other awards are also available for feasibility studies, public awareness and education related to green buildings.
