A Step Closer to Making a Choice
December 21, 2023
• In early January, Needham will submit an electricity aggregation plan for approval with the state. The move may have powerful implications to residents and businesses.
For many people, paying the electric bill is not something they really think about. The bill comes in, you pay it. It is something you signed on for and that is it. However, who supplies the electricity you receive is a choice consumers can make, and that decision can affect both cost and carbon footprint. Needham has set as a goal the establishment of an electricity aggregation plan, which promises to offer more stable energy prices and greener power options. As that plan progresses, you can make moves today to get a jump start and get a plan that fits your budgetary and idealogical needs.
