Giving Hanover Citizens Choice in Their Power Source
Leading the Way to 100% Renewable Energy

Hanover Community Power is a way to purchase electric power that is more renewable and/or less expensive than power offered by regulated utilities. In 2021, Town staff,  the Hanover Electric Aggregation Committee, and members of Sustainable Hanover's Energy Initiative prepared the Hanover Community Power Plan, which was adopted at Town Meeting. We are now putting that plan to action to create short- and long-term benefits for our energy users. Sustainable Hanover NH website

How Community Power Works

Hanover Community Power combines the buying power of residents and businesses so that together we can achieve competitively priced electricity. Customers are always free to choose to buy power from their utility, or from another market option, by submitting notice in advance of their next utility meter read date. By accessing the power market, we can control price volatility and choose which energy sources to buy or build.
