COMMUNITY POWER

Portsmouth Energy Advisory Committee and Rye Energy Committee Host NHSaves Button-Up Workshop on Nov 3. Go to details.

Brought to the City Council through the Sustainability Committee, The Community Power Coalition of New Hampshire is a non-profit Joint Powers Agency in development — governed “by communities, for communities” — designed to empower towns, cities and counties across New Hampshire to:​

  1. Streamline the process for authorizing a Community Power program locally.

  2. Share services and staff support across member cities, towns and counties. 

  3. Participate in joint power solicitations and local project development opportunities. 

  4. Share knowledge and collaborate regionally on clean energy and resilient infrastructure development. 

  5. Speak with one voice at the Legislature and Public Utilities Commission on public advocacy issues related to energy and Community Power.

The City Council held a Work Session on the Community Power initiative on August 9, 2021.
