📄 About the Program

The City of Framingham is pleased to announce the Framingham Community Electricity program, a municipal electricity aggregation, which is a type of group electricity purchasing program for Framingham residents and businesses. 

Through Framingham Community Electricity, the City uses the community's collective buying power to increase the amount of renewable electricity in the community’s electricity supply. The program provides:

• More renewable energy at a lower cost than Eversource
• Three new electricity supply choices
• Stable and consistent pricing over a two-year contract

Once Framingham Community Electricity launches in March 2025, Eversource will continue to deliver electricity to Framingham without interruption, and Framingham Community Electricity will not replace Eversource as the City’s electric utility. Rather, the program will be integrated into the Eversource bill, changing the price used to calculate the Supply charge from Eversource’s Basic Service price to a Framingham price.
