Project completed January 2015

New Hampshire State Representatives Barry, Moore, and Notter introduced a bill on January 7, 2015 that would end the state’s participation in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI). On behalf of New Hampshire’s Office of the Consumer Advocate, Synapse staff testified before the Science, Technology and Energy Committee that repealing RGGI would result in higher bills for New Hampshire consumers and would eliminate the least expensive way for New Hampshire to comply with upcoming federal regulations.
