Your payments for additional renewable energy were included in the total cost per kilowatt-hour (kWh) of electricity which was billed to you within the supply section of your electric bill. Therefore, we need to know how many kWh you used in 2024.
Grab a calculator or pen & paper. Refer to the sample bill below, and to your electric bill, and follow these final steps to receive an email with your tax-deductible charitable contributions.
Find the "Electricity Usage History" section, highlighted in red on the sample bill here. Add up the numbers representing your kilowatt hour ("kWh") usage for each month you were enrolled in the Standard option in 2024.
Quincy, Hanson, Malden, Belchertown, Boxford, and Andover residents, only add up June 24 through Dec 24*.
For residents of any other community, add up Jan 24 through Dec 24*.
*If you know you enrolled in the program later, or you switched off the program at some point during 2024, simply add up the kWh for the months you were enrolled.
The tax deduction will be different based on which community your property is in. If you pay the electric bill for more than one property in the same community, you can add up the total kWh on each electric bill to one sum and submit the form once. If you pay the electric bill for properties in more than one eligible community, you should resubmit the form for each community.
Enter sum from #2 into the box labeled "Sum of your kWh usage for 2024" in the form below, along with your contact information. Then, hit "send my receipt."
