The Clean Power Program's (CPP) mission remains simple, yet relevant: to financially assist MPE members who install local, renewable resources and large scale electrification and efficiency projects. Grateful rebate recipients “pay it forward.” They too contribute to the program so that rebate dollars are available for future renewable, electrification and efficiency projects.
Rebate Application Contribution Form
Rebates available include:
Renewable Energy: $1,000 for renewable energy systems between 2kW-25kW applied for and installed in 2026. $500 for renewable energy systems between 2kW-25kW applied for in 2025.
Electrification: Up to $2000 per home for eligible measures (from MPE rebate program) for all-electric developments. No gas can be present at development. Maximum total award of $50,000 per development. Pre-approval required.
Energy Efficiency: Up to $2000 per home for eligible measures (from MPE rebate program) for large-scale efficiency projects on existing multifamily properties. Maximum total award of $25,000 per development. Property(s) must provide initial energy audit results. Pre-approval required.
Education: Up to $10,000 per year for third party entities to perform education and outreach related to renewable energy, electrification, and energy efficiency. Pre-approval required.
Who Funds the Clean Power Program?
Our members! Members voluntarily choose to contribute to this program. Although some members contribute $100 a month, any MPE member can support the program by contributing as little as $1 a month or more. One-time and annual contributions are also accepted. Contribution forms are available at the Granby and Walden offices or online.

2025 Clean Power Program Retrospective
Mountain Parks Electric is pleased to report another successful year for the Clean Power Program. This program is a 100% voluntary, member-funded program. Its mission remains simple and relevant — to financially assist MPE members who install local, renewable resources, and large-scale electrification and efficiency projects. Rebate recipients “pay it forward,” contributing to the program so that rebate dollars are available for future renewable, electrification, and efficiency projects.
In 2025, our members contributed a total of $49,368. MPE awarded $33,026 toward worthwhile projects, including:
- Distributing $500 rebates for 16 residential solar arrays
- Supporting the non-profit Sustainable Grand with funding for local energy auditor training and free weatherization workshops
- Offsetting costs of low-income weatherization and a large energy efficiency project for the North Park Pioneer Museum
In addition to rebates for renewable energy in 2026, the Clean Power Program will offer the following rebates:
- Electrification: Up to $2,000 per home for all-electric developments for eligible initiatives (from the MPE Rebate Program). No natural gas can be utilized at the development. There is a maximum total award of $50,000 per development. Pre-approval is required.
- Energy Efficiency: Up to $2,000 per home for large-scale efficiency projects on existing multifamily properties for eligible initiatives (from MPE Rebate Program). There is a maximum total award of $25,000 per development. Pre-approval is required, and initial energy audit results must be provided in the application.
- Education: Up to $10,000 per year for third-party entities to perform education and outreach related to renewable energy, electrification, and energy efficiency. Pre-approval is required.
As of December 31, 2025, nearly $400,000 had been “paid forward” by program contributors to help fund a total capacity of local generation projects totaling more than 3,675 kW.
For 2026, the residential renewable energy rebate has been increased from $500 to $1000. This is to help our members offset increased expenses with the discontinued federal tax credit and a fee now assessed during the net metering application process.
