CONCORD – The Board of Directors of the Community Power Coalition of New Hampshire have announced a new base rate of 10.9 cents per kilowatt hour, which starting in August, is expected to generate $5.5 million in savings and $1.7 million in financial reserves. The coalition will once again also offer customers the choice of purchasing 100 percent, 50 percent and 33 percent renewable power at rates comparable to Unitil, Eversouce and Liberty.

“As a non-profit, we are working to bring innovative solutions, ratepayer savings, and increased community control to our customers and member communities,” said coalition CEO Brian Callnan. “At its core, CPCNH exists to solve problems, and we are excited to once again bring multiple options and millions of dollars in savings to our customers.”

Since launching in March, the coalition has created $14 million in value for its members. The coalition will be the third-largest electrical supplier in New Hampshire once all customers across the 12 “Wave 1” communities are fully enrolled. Coalition membership has grown to 35 cities, towns and counties and now represents more than 24 percent of the population.
