Is Braintree in Mass Save?

Partly. Braintree is a municipal light plant town: its electricity comes from the Braintree Electric Light Department, and light plant customers are outside Mass Save's electric program. National Grid, an investor-owned gas company, also serves the town, so a home with a National Grid gas account can use Mass Save through it.

For weatherization, a National Grid gas account is enough, even one that only heats water. A home with no gas service uses the light plant's own programs.

Braintree is on the state's list of municipal light plants; Mass Save in municipal light plant towns has the full decision tree.

Window rebates and financing in Braintree

Through a National Grid gas account, Mass Save pays $75 per window in 2026, and only when ENERGY STAR Most Efficient windows replace single-pane windows after you complete the weatherization recommendations from a Home Energy Assessment.

Replacing double-pane windows earns no rebate. The 0% HEAT Loan can finance ENERGY STAR replacement windows, but only alongside completed weatherization recommendations.

Do you need a permit for replacement windows or doors in Braintree?

Plan on one. Window and door replacement is not on the Massachusetts building code's list of permit-exempt work, and the Braintree Building Department decides whether a same-size swap counts as an ordinary repair. 75% of Braintree's homes were built before 1980 (Census ACS 2018-2022), and work that disturbs paint in a home built before 1978 has to follow the lead-safe renovation rules.
