Keene Community Power (CP) is a city-operated group purchasing program that pools the electric use of residents, businesses, non-profits, and property owners to provide competitively priced electricity options. The Program offers Keene electricity customers with a city-vetted alternative to Eversource’s default service and other third-party electricity suppliers. The Program is part of a larger effort to transition to 100% renewable energy by 2050.

***Beware of copy-cat offers from other companies (like this one). Remember: any communication from Keene’s program will have our City seal.***

How it works

If you participate in Keene Community Power, your Eversource bill will be impacted as follows:

• The Supplier portion of the bill will change to reflect your participation in Keene program.
• Eversource will continue to provide all Delivery Services, including responding to power outages, and will continue to send you your electricity bill.
• Customers that receive a discount on their electricity bill through the Electric Assistance Program (EAP) will continue to receive their benefits. 
• Budget billing customers will continue to receive budget billing for the Delivery Services portion of the bill.
• Net metering:  For Net Energy Metering 1.0 customers (i.e. those systems built before September 1, 2017), joining Keene Community Power results in no loss of solar financial benefits. However, due to limitations from Eversource’s billing system, for most Net Energy Metering 2.0 customers (i.e. those systems built September 1, 2017 and later), joining Keene Community Power will reduce your solar financial benefits.  Please see our FAQ for help determining which Net Energy Metering program you are on, and how NEM 2.0 solar benefits are affected. For further questions, please call the program’s consultant, Good Energy, at (833) 316-5460. 
• You may leave the Program, or switch to a different program option, at any time, and without penalty.
