There shall be a separate, non-budgeted Low-income Services Solar Program Fund that shall be administered by the department of energy resources. There shall be credited into the fund revenues or other financing sources directed to the fund by appropriation or any other money authorized by the general court and specifically designated to be credited to the fund, any income derived from the investment of amounts credited to the fund and money from the repayment of loans from the fund, funds from public or private sources, including, but not limited to, gifts, federal, state or private grants, donations, rebates and settlements received by the commonwealth that are specifically designated to be credited to the fund and all other amounts credited or transferred into the fund from any other source. The department shall establish a grant program to provide solar energy technology to nonprofit organizations offering services, including, but not limited to, food security and homelessness and emergency shelter; provided, however, that any such grant shall be expended for solar energy technology at the principal place of the nonprofit organization's operations or at any location or site that has a primary or secondary function to provide such benefits or services, including, but not limited to, satellite operations space or affiliated organization locations; provided further, that 100 per cent of the solar energy produced by the technology shall benefit the nonprofit organization. The amounts credited to the fund shall not be subject to appropriation and shall be available for expenditure for the costs associated with purchasing and installing solar energy generating equipment for nonprofit organizations that meet criteria set forth by the department. Not less than 10 grants shall be awarded per fiscal year to nonprofits located in geographically diverse areas and no grant amount shall exceed $50,000. The department shall submit an annual report on all disbursements made from the fund, including, but not limited to, a list of grant awardees and the amounts awarded, to the clerks of the senate and house of representatives and the joint committee on telecommunications, utilities and energy not later than December 31.
