This bill would effectively shut down New Hampshire’s renewable energy future by freezing new participation in the Renewable Portfolio Standard, capping incentives, and steadily dismantling the funding that supports clean energy programs. By cutting off new systems after a short window and weakening long-term incentives, it sends a clear signal that New Hampshire is no longer serious about energy innovation, affordability, or environmental responsibility. It also threatens the Renewable Energy Fund, which supports low- and moderate-income programs, clean energy jobs, and state energy infrastructure. At a time when families are struggling with high energy costs and climate risks are increasing, we should be expanding access to renewable energy, not slamming the door on it and dismantling the systems that make it possible.
