Brainstorming on what's next: pairing solar with school roof replacements, ground-mounted solar on town land (most parcels are constrained), battery storage for peak-shaving, and — after a spirited debate — micro-nuclear reactors were added to the future agenda.
Energy Commission - Aug 27, 2026
Bedford residents could see a town-run electric supply option launch around April 2027, if December's rate-setting shows CPCNH beating Eversource. The town keeps the final go/no-go decision, expected this fall or early winter.
Energy Commission - Jan 22, 2026
The town's Community Power launch is still on hold, but an alternative supplier, Freedom Energy, has reached out. Leaders will meet with them, and any program would need voter approval on the 2027 ballot.
We'll email you when it's on an upcoming agenda and when it's voted on, at most once a day.
