Residents enrolled in the community energy choice program saved an average of about $12 per month compared with the standard supply rate, although participation has declined. The committee plans another spring campaign to encourage residents to choose a higher renewable-energy option. Public EV charging is generating use and revenue, but the town has not yet established an account to receive money being held by the charging app provider. The committee also expects to seek proposals for solar projects on three town buildings first, with later phases covering additional buildings.
