Revolving loan program, MEA provides loans to State agencies for cost-effective energy efficiency improvements in State facilities

Approximately $1 million in new loans are awarded each fiscal year State agencies pay zero interest with a 1% administration fee Repayments are made from agency's fuel and utility budget, based on the

avoided energy costs of the project
