The Town of Hadley launched the Hadley Community Electricity Aggregation (CEA) program for residents and businesses in August of 2019. The primary goals of the program are to provide competitive choice, longer-term price stability and more renewable energy options to participating consumers. The program was approved by the Board of Selectmen and the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities.
Below is a chart comparing the rates for the Hadley Community Electricity Aggregation program to Eversource’s summer 2019 rates. The program will begin with participating account holder’s August 2019 meter reading. The new program rate will be reflected on September’s bill for August service from Eversource.
Please note, program pricing below will be in effect from August – December 2019, whereupon, program rates will increase marginally one time and remain fixed through November 2021. The pricing chart below will be updated in November 2019 to reflect these changes.
