By 2050, peak electricity demand in New England could be 2x what it is today

Now, with a $50m fed grant, a pilot project in MA will install heat pumps, smart thermostats, and batteries in 2k low-income homes to see if it can meaningful reduce that peak. Energysky 🔌💡 www.wbur.org/news/2023/11...
Pilot program will install batteries in 2,000 Mass. homes to reduce energy demand on the grid
The federal government awarded Mass Save and Generac $50 million to test whether installing batteries in homes can reduce demand on the grid as more homes are electrified
