Canton Electricity Choice

New Canton Electricity Choice program will bring cleaner electricity, stable electricity prices, and new electricity choices

 

The Town of Canton is pleased to announce the Canton Electricity Choice program. The program will be a municipal electricity aggregation, which is a type of electricity purchasing program for Canton residents and businesses. Canton Electricity Choice will allow the Town to use our collective buying power to take a big step toward our sustainability goals and provide affordable renewable electricity to Canton’s residential and business community members. The program will provide new choices that give electricity customers greater control over the cost and environmental impact of the electricity they use. Though the program will not be able to guarantee savings, the Town is committed to working toward competitive and stable prices.

Before launching the program, the Town must develop an Aggregation Plan and submit it to state regulators for review and approval. To ensure the public has an opportunity to be a part of developing this program, the Town is making its draft Aggregation Plan available for review and comment before beginning that regulatory review process.

The draft Aggregation Plan for Canton Electricity Choice will be available for public review and comment from January 3 until February 2, 2023. Those interested in reviewing the plan can download it from the links below or visit the Town Clerk’s Office to view a physical copy (801 Washington Street). Canton residents and business owners are encouraged to review the plan and submit written comments to Town of Canton, 801 Washington Street, Canton, MA 02021 (Attn: Canton Energy Advisory Committee) or email to ceac@town.canton.ma.us. Comments sent by mail must be received (not postmarked) by the end of the comment period in order to be addressed.

An overview of the plan will be presented at a public information session on January 24 at 7:00 PM. Information for participating in this meeting will be posted on the Town of Canton calendar. Anyone who requires an ASL interpreter for this event should submit their request to support@cantonelectricitychoice.com by January 18.
