New Hampshire's First Community Power Town

Welcome. Harrisville Community Power provides residents, businesses, and the municipality with access to lower rates and more renewable energy.

​

Harrisville became the first town in the state to adopt a Community Power Plan at Town Meeting, May 2021.

​

In Spring 2023 we are putting that plan into action to realize our goals of creating short- and long-term benefits for Harrisville energy users.

How Community Power Works

Harrisville 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 Eversource, 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.

Source

Harrisville Community Power purchases electricity from the sources you choose.

Delivery

Eversource delivers the electricity using the same power line infrastructure and billing mechanisms.

Community

Harrisville Energy Customers save money and have the power to choose new rates and products, and how much electricity comes from renewable sources.

Electricity markets are changing. Customers are generating their own power and adopting new technologies that add value to our energy portfolio.

​

Harrisville Community Power will harness that value, and empower customers to create a more innovative and cost-effective energy future.

Community Representation

Harrisville joined dozens of other New Hampshire cities and towns to create our own locally accountable nonprofit power agency — Community Power Coalition of New Hampshire.

​

The Town of Harrisville appoints representatives to the Coalition to oversee the agency's governance and finances. Meet our Member Representatives!

COMMUNITY INTEREST / PROSPECTS FOR CLEAN LOCAL POWER

Our Coalition power agency responds to our interests, expands prospects for local power generation, and gives a stronger voice in state policy.

ENERGY PORTFOLIO

Our actively managed portfolio for energy supply takes advantage of changing market rates (instead of a minimal number of fixed contracts).

NONPROFIT

Generating Member-owned reserve funds to keep rates stable low over time, and to reinvest back into benefiting Harrisville.

The Coalition is managed and overseen by Member Towns.

We have representatives on CPCNH Boards and Committees, ensuring our interests are represented and our voices heard.
