Green Mountain Power

Love this team, our state, and all we can do for customers!

ICYMI: New York Times featuring #vt teamwork using busses as batteries to lower cost and carbon for customers, and support our Zero Outages Initiative! This includes expanding energy storage, undergrounding of lines, and storm hardening overhead lines so everyone stays powered up by 2030. #energystorage #innovation "In total, Green Mountain Power has access to 50 megawatts of battery storage from school buses, home batteries and other sources, said Mari McClure, the utility’s chief executive. That’s as much as a small gas power plant. Unlike a plant that runs on fossil fuels, the power is available almost instantly. The utility asked Vermont regulators last month to allow it to install batteries at the homes of its customers who don’t already have one, an effort that would dovetail with its work on school buses."

A beautiful event, celebrating the opening of the East Calais General Store. We worked with town leaders so this store and community center is fully electric with no fossil fuels! #vt #letsgo

ICYMI: CEO Mari McClure on Last Call on CNBC talking about our Zero Outages Initiative for #vt: “It’s about our customers, and at the end we are going to have a two way, decentralized energy independent grid, that Is much more affordable.”

Green Mountain Power's Zero Outages Initiative is a first in the nation plan so customers stay powered up no matter the weather or their location. We will do this by 2030 by accelerating solutions like undergrounding lines, storm hardening overhead lines with insulated, stronger wire and energy storage for all. It’s about equity and safety – a way to address climate change head on! More information in The New York Times article by Ivan Penn. #innovation #safety #resiliency #vt #team

It's time to urgently bring solutions to all Vermonters, no matter who they are or where they live. Also has the benefit of lowering costs for all! A no brainer approach to tackle the unsustainable status quo.

🎉🎉🎉 Great news! All our customers will now have access to seamless, cost-effective home battery backup power! We requested to lift the enrollment caps on our popular Powerwall and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) home battery programs. Removing the cap allows more customers access to the program as Vermont sees increasingly severe weather due to climate change. Regulators agreed, citing growing customer demand for home batteries, the likelihood of more extreme weather in the future. These innovative home battery programs benefit all GMP customers, delivering millions in savings each year.  #innovation #storage #resiliency #teamvt

This is a great example of how we're strengthening the grid in Vermont and using stored clean energy to benefit all of our customers. Our mobile battery from Vermont's Nomad Transportable Power Systems helped Twincraft Skincare stay powered up. https://lnkd.in/e4WPqaST

Great to partner with Vermont-based companies to deliver resiliency! Green Mountain Solar, O'Brien Brothers, & GMP all working together on a first of its kind Resilient Neighborhood in South Burlington with solar and storage, and all-electric. Keeping people powered up, while lowering cost and carbon for all, with more to come statewide! #innovation #teamwork https://lnkd.in/dSSxWgZS
