Bethlehem Energy Aggregation Committee

and
Thursday, December 14th, 2023 at 6:00pm

at Profile High School Library, Bethlehem NH

To consider the adoption of a Community Power Plan
in accordance with RSA 53-E.

Community Power creates new electricity supply choices for Bethlehem residents and businesses with the potential for cost and environmental benefits beyond that of the Default Service supply from the electric distribution utilities. Instead of simply utilizing the utilities’ electricity supply, Bethlehem will bundle together the electricity needs of its residents and businesses and put out a bid for an electricity supplier to provide the necessary electricity at competitive prices. With Community Power, Bethlehem is able to make strategic pricing decisions about when to solicit bids and lock in fixed pricing for multiple years. Bethlehem can also increase the amount of renewable energy available to individual customers and the community. Liberty and Eversource will continue to manage billing and maintain wires and poles.
