Seacoast Green Challenge - The Power to Choose Cleaner Electricity

Chart showing the various rates for community power options

Exeter, NH - August 6th, 2024: Exeter has been challenged by our neighboring municipalities to compete in the "Seacoast Green Challenge".  In this friendly race to be the "Seacoast Green Challenge Champion",  we are competing with Dover, Portsmouth, Newmarket and Durham to see how many residents will "opt-up" and choose greener electric choices through our community power programs. 

 

How it works:  Exeter Community Power gives us the power to choose cleaner electricity.  Most residents were automatically enrolled in Granite Basic with a default of 24.3% renewable energy content.  The Seacoast Green Challenge encourages you to "Opt Up" and choose greater renewable energy content in your electricity supply.  For a little as 3.4 cents more per kilowatt hour, you can choose to have 100% of your electricity come from renewable energy!  It's a small price to pay to have a big impact.

 

Join the challenge and show our neighbors Exeter is ready to be the Seacoast Green Challenge Champion!  To "Opt Up", head to communitypowernh.gov/exeter and choose more renewable energy content today! Not sure where to start? The Energy Committee prepared a short tutorial video which can also be viewed on Exeter TV's YouTube page.  We have from now until January 31st to earn the title we all know Exeter deserves!
