The Clean Energy Advisory Board is established as an advisory board in the executive branch of state government. The purpose of the Board is to establish a pilot program for disbursing loans or rebates for the installation of solar energy infrastructure in low-income and moderate-income households through the "Low-to-Moderate Income Solar Loan and Rebate Fund". 

 The Office of Critical Minerals and Energy Innovation (CMEI) provides a Low-Income Energy Affordability Data Tool (LEAD) designed to help create better energy strategies and programs by improving their understanding of low income housing and energy characteristics. View the LEAD tool here »
