Location Change For Energy Aggregation Program Meeting In Manchester

MANCHESTER, NJ — The Manchester Township Council has scheduled a special meeting to discuss the township's energy aggregation program.

The meeting is set for 2 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 6. It will be held in the Civic Center at 1 Colonial Drive, Manchester. The Civic Center is in the basement at town hall.

Manchester has had an energy aggregation contract with Energy Harbor since December 2021, and the 24-month contract is due to expire in December 2023.

Energy aggregation programs use bulk purchasing power to get a lower rate for electricity than that offered by Jersey Central Power & Light. Enrollment in the program is automatic but residents who do not wish to participate can opt-out.

The notice about the special meeting says formal action will be taken and an executive session may be necessary.
