The 2021 Annual Town Report provides an extensive discussion on the Hanover Community Power program (see Appendix E).
The Executive Summary describes background and purpose, and defines the public approval process and next steps.
The Frequently Asked Questions section addresses common questions about the HCP, Electric Aggregation and the CPCNH.
The Timeline for Hanover’s Public Planning Process covers the process from October 2017 to June 2021.
Article #18 on the warrant for the 2021 Town Meeting was adopted, supporting the Hanover Community Power Electric Aggregation Plan.
“To see if the Town will vote to adopt the Hanover Community Power Electric Aggregation Plan which authorizes the Selectboard to develop and implement Hanover Community Power as described therein (pursuant to RSA 53-E:7).”
Approval by the majority of voters now permits the Selectboard to proceed with implementing the Plan, subject to regulations adopted by the NH Public Utilities Commission.
Future decisions by the Selectboard will be made at duly noticed public meetings.
