The power of our community

Dunstable Community Power is in development! A group electricity buying program for residents and businesses, Dunstable Community Power will use the purchasing power of our community to provide:

  • New electricity choices
  • Stable electricity supply prices
  • Consumer protections

More than 200 other Massachusetts cities and towns have similar programs, which are known as municipal electricity aggregations. The Town is targeting 2025 for program launch, pending state regulatory approval.

Program benefits

No interruption in service

Through Dunstable Community Power, the Town will select its own electricity supplier (the company that puts electricity on the grid for us) and lock in a long-term price for the electricity supply charge on our bills. But National Grid will remain Dunstable’s electric utility and will continue to handle billing, address power outages, and deliver our electricity with no interruption.

How aggregation works

The same electric bill

Dunstable Community Power will be integrated into your existing National Grid electric bill, giving you a new price for your electricity supply charge. But you will not see any additional charges on your bill or receive any additional electric bills because of participating in the program.

Aggregation simplified

Will you save money?

Maybe! The Town of Dunstable is committed to pursuing stable and competitive prices. Savings compared with National Grid’s Basic Service prices are also possible. But because National Grid’s prices change and their future prices are not known, savings compared with National Grid can never be guaranteed.

Protect your electricity account number

National Grid will never knock on your door or call you to talk about your electric bill.
Only provide your account number if you are ready to change your electricity supplier.
