Thermal Renewable Energy Credits (T-RECs)
Save thousands of dollars by reducing your cost of pellets
down to the equivalent of $2.75/gal #2 heating oil
- You can offset your heating costs dramatically by switching to wood pellets and earning T-RECs for the lifetime of your boiler. Last year, homeowners earned thousands in RECs.
- RECs sell for market value which fluctuates between $0 and $25 per REC. Each ton of pellets contains about 3.6 RECs, so each ton is worth up to about $75. The average home burning 10 tons a year if RECs are at $22 would earn up to $600 annually, potentially adding up to $12,000 over 20 years, not to mention savings on fuel costs.
- Maine Energy Systems collaborated with other industry leaders to submit the first petition to the Maine PUC to approve Maine homeowners to earn T-RECs.
- The process: if MESys delivers your pellets, let us know you would like to participate, we’ll get you signed up and take it from there so you can reap even more rewards for your renewable heated home.
- If MESys doesn’t deliver your pellets or you’re looking to switch, we can help with that, too. Just give us a call at 207-824-NRGY (6749).
