Disclaimer: A goal of the WinPower program is to produce savings for customers, but savings cannot be guaranteed compared to the utility’s basic service rate which changes every six months for residential and small commercial customers and every three months for industrial customers. The Aggregation program seeks to provide price stability and average savings over the full term of the program, but because future basic service rates are not known, there is no guarantee of savings.

WinPower Performance

In July of 2017, the Town of Winchester launched WinPower. First and foremost, WinPower promised to provide price stability when compared to Eversource Basic Service rates. This stability has resulted in an amazing 85% participation rate. WinPower also hoped to generate savings for residents. While we can never guarantee savings, the program has performed very well so far1. Best of all, we accomplished this all while including more local renewable energy in our electricity than Basic Service! See News & Information for more details.

Basic Service prices change every six months for residential and small business customers and every three months for large business customers.
