Is your electricity bill too high? The Town has contracted with Colonial Power to provide an electricity plan for town residents that takes advantage of joining with other communities to have a larger customer base for negotiations, which has resulted in prices significantly lower than current Eversource prices. Please note, this may not always be the case. For more detail or to opt in or opt out, visit the Town’s website or call the Town Manager’s Office.
