In Celebration of Older Americans Month
December 22, 2022
Live Well Springfield Climate Change Health and Equity coalition has advocated through the City Council Sustainability and Environmental Subcommittee for the support of Community Choice Energy (CCE) in Springfield. On December 5th, the subcommittee called for a vote through the City Council, and the council members unanimously supported it. CCE is an energy-supply option that would allow the City of Springfield to get up to 100% of its electricity from clean, renewable energy such as solar and wind power. Eversource would still provide our energy, and we would still pay our electric bills to Eversource.
