The Community Power Coalition of New Hampshire (CPCNH) announced a 2% electricity rate increase for its Granite Basic default rate, effective August 1, 2026, through January 31, 2027. The new rate of 14.949 cents per kilowatt-hour is slightly higher than Eversource's default rate of 14.009 cents, and residents are advised they can switch between providers without penalty to seek lower rates. Despite the increase, the Portsmouth Energy Advisory Committee continues to support CPCNH for its long-term benefits, including advocacy, customer choice, and the promotion of renewable energy.
