What's different about rebates in Quincy

Quincy's electricity comes from National Grid, not Eversource. National Grid is a Mass Save sponsor, so the statewide rebates apply the same way. When you call about a panel upgrade, battery program or EV charger program, you'll deal with National Grid. Book your no-cost assessment through Mass Save at 866-527-7283.

Quincy sits between two very different neighbours. Braintree, to the south, runs Braintree Electric Light Department. It's a town-owned utility, so Braintree homes aren't covered by Mass Save's electric programs. Further along the South Shore, Hingham and Hull also have their own light plants. If you're comparing quotes with family in those towns, their rebates come from their light plant, not Mass Save. Quincy's older homes in Wollaston, Houghs Neck and Squantum often have older wiring and panels. Get an electrician's view before you settle on a heat pump size.

Quincy's coastline also matters for planning. Homes near Wollaston Beach, Marina Bay and Houghs Neck get salt air and winter storms. Ask installers about coastal-rated outdoor units, and mount them above likely flood levels. If your roof is right for solar, remember Massachusetts pays solar through SMART 3.0, $0.03 per kWh for home systems, not an upfront Mass Save rebate. Many Quincy families pair a heat pump with a $750 heat pump water heater in the same basement visit.

Renting or living in a condo?

If you rent

The structural rebates above (heat pump, insulation, solar) go to whoever owns the property, not the tenant. The free Mass Save home energy assessment is still worth booking, though — it typically includes free quick fixes like LED bulbs and a smart thermostat. If you want the bigger upgrades, the ask has to go to your landlord.

If you own a condo unit

In-unit upgrades you control yourself — a heat pump water heater, in-suite windows, an in-unit heat pump — may qualify for the rebates above, usually with your building's approval for anything touching shared systems or exterior walls. Confirm that approval before applying.

If it's a whole-building retrofit

Heat pumps, insulation, and solar for an entire building go through Mass Save's multifamily track rather than the single-family numbers above — the process and amounts differ, and your condo board or property manager applies rather than individual owners. Ask Mass Save to connect your board with that program directly.

How to claim it

  1. Schedule your free Mass Save home energy assessment
  2. Get quotes from Mass Save-participating contractors in Quincy
  3. Work is installed
  4. Contractor or you file the rebate paperwork with Mass Save
  5. Rebate is paid after Mass Save approves it. Some offers (like heat pump water heaters) are instant; mailed rebates can take months, so keep copies of everything

Rebate finder: every Mass Save program in Quincy, by category.

These are the real, current Mass Save amounts shown on our Quincy category pages — the same statewide program, not a Quincy-only deal. The whole-home heat pump ceiling is $8,500 in 2026, down from $10,000 in 2024, and regulators trimmed the 2025–2027 Mass Save budget by $500 million, and Mass Save has documented processing delays, so treat these as caps to plan around, not guaranteed instant payouts. Filter by category below.

Heat pump

Mass Save heat pump rebate

Up to $8,500

$2,650 per ton, capped at $8,500 for most households (down from $10,000 in 2024; regulators also trimmed the 2025–2027 Mass Save budget by $500 million). Income-qualified households can reach $16,000 for air-source or $25,000 for ground-source. Only R-32 or R-454B refrigerant systems qualify as of January 1, 2026 — older R-410A units are no longer eligible. Same statewide, not just Quincy.

Amounts are Mass Save program-wide figures and apply the same whether you're an Eversource or National Grid customer — we checked a sample of Quincy and other Massachusetts city pages and found no utility-level variance in these headline caps. Processing can take 5–7 months end to end; see your Quincy heat pump page for the full application timeline.
