According to Green Justice Coalition research, MassSAVE is underserving low-income neighborhoods and communities of color, and low- to moderate-income ratepayers are paying more into the system than they are getting out. As a result, neighborhoods like Roxbury and Dorchester are subsidizing wealthier suburbs’ weatherization work.

The Green Justice Coalition has proposed three solutions to this problem:

1. Provide financial access for low- to moderate-income residents;
2. Mobilize low-income communities for climate action; and
3. Make sure “green” jobs are good jobs held by community residents.
