Leading Lyme towards sustainable energy for less
At the March, 2020 Town Meeting, voters approved a warrant article that set a town-
wide goal of 100% reliance on clean, renewable sources of electricity by 2030. The
goal seeks to:
-
Reduce energy costs to the community and keep energy dollars in the local economy
-
Reduce the risks to the community of escalation and volatility in energy costs
-
Address the threat of global climate change​
​
Lyme Community Power offers residents the opportunity to participate in getting us closer to that goal.

Lyme 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 provider or 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
Lyme Community Power provides electricity purchased by CPCNH with a variety of renewable content options.
Delivery
Eversource or NHEC delivers the electricity using the same power line infrastructure and billing mechanisms.
Community
Lyme 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.
​
Lyme Community Power will harness that value, and empower customers to create a more innovative and cost-effective energy future.
