Videos from those meetings are available at Hudson Community Television. Those same candidate providers are being re-interviewed. Their new presentations are also available on HCTV and on the Presentations & Documents page of this website.
Through its membership with Community Power Coalition of New Hampshire, Hudson and the EAC have participated in the Public Utilities Commission rule making process for Community Power, which resulted in a final proposal for administrative rules approved by the PUC on July 27, 2022.
