Submit a Project Idea!

We’re proud to announce a fourth round of funding for Electrify Merrimac. But we need your help! Submit your project ideas today!

    What is Electrify Merrimac?

    The state of Massachusetts requires us to spend designated funding towards improving energy efficiency in Merrimac. Instead of selecting the projects ourselves, in 2023 we launched a program to provide an opportunity for others to submit proposals to enhance energy efficiency or improve illumination for various projects throughout the town.

    We’ve been very pleased with the results! The clock tower project was a great way to bring our community together during our 150th anniversary, and updates to lighting at the senior center and historical museum are put to good use every day, in a way that our whole community can enjoy.

    Who can submit an idea?

    Town Departments and Non-profits can submit proposals to enhance energy efficiency or improve illumination for various projects throughout Merrimac.
