WHO KNEW Our Own Hanover Town Manager, Julia Griffin, has Been Named Clean Energy New Hampshire’s Champion of the Year?

According to Clean Energy New Hampshire’s press release, Julia “has been instrumental in advancing state and local clean energy policy – through legislation, regulation and implementation.” She has also been named to the CENH Board.

During its 2017 Town Meeting, Hanover voted overwhelmingly for the entire town to transition to 100% renewable energy for electricity by 2030 and heating, cooling and transportation by 2050. Julia has worked tirelessly to meet this goal. Hanover recently completed a 1.72 MW solar array, which along with already installed solar panels, amounts to enough energy to cover 97% of Hanover's municipal electrical usage. Among many other environmental initiatives, Julia has also worked with other area leaders to establish the Community Power Coalition of New Hampshire which will make electricity generated from renewable sources available to participating towns

For 25 years as our town manager, Julia Griffin has been our champion. Now it’s official!
