SUNAPEE ENERGY AGGREGATION COMMITTEE — August 13, 2025

If you've been waiting for the Town of Sunapee's community power aggregation program to launch and lower your electric bill, here's the update: it's not happening yet.

At the August 13th committee meeting, members acknowledged that Community Power Coalition rates are currently higher than Eversource's standard offer. That means the program cannot launch until rates become competitive. There's no firm timeline for when that will happen. A meeting has been scheduled for September 10th at 5:30 PM with Community Power Coalition representative Andrew Hatch to discuss launch agreements and contracts.

The committee also debated whether to proactively send rate comparison information to residents. One member argued it didn't make sense to distribute it until a launch is imminent. The committee decided to update the town website with current energy rate information so residents can access it there.

In other business, a speaker was appointed as the committee's new representative to the Community Power Coalition of New Hampshire, replacing Kyle, with Betty continuing as alternate. The committee also discussed Zoom meeting security procedures and announced a Window Dressers community build initiative for custom window inserts to reduce energy costs, with free options for those with financial needs.

No public comment was recorded at this meeting. If you're interested in the status of the community power program, the September 10th meeting is an important one to attend. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/sunapee/energy-aggregation-committee/2025-08-13/ #MeetingWatch #SunapeeNH
