Per Order of the Greenfield Community Power Committee

The Town of Greenfield is considering implementing a new Town program called Community Power, or in other states, called Municipal Aggregation. If adopted by a majority of Town voters, The Greenfield Community Power Plan would empower the Town to enter into Electric Services Agreements with Competitive Electric Power Suppliers to serve the electric supply needs of residents and small businesses in Greenfield. The intent is to pool our electricity demand and use the power of the competitive market for cost savings and more local renewable energy supply choices. Program savings over the contract period is the goal of the program along with more renewable energy choices, but savings cannot be guaranteed.

This program would affect only the supply line on customer electric bills. Transmission and distribution, emergency services, and billing all stay with the distribution utility. Eligible customers are automatically enrolled in the new program default following notification of program rates and an opt-out period. They can also elect to choose an optional product. There are no fees to opt-out, join, or change options within the program. Customers that opt-out and then rejoin the program may be charged a market rate. Customers currently on competitive supply are not automatically enrolled but can opt in. There is no cost to the Town Budget.
