Village and Town of Ossining: Westchester Power Chooses Constellation New Energy for 100% Renewable Energy. Renewal Notifications Letters To Be Mailed

Good news! Sustainable Westchester, manager of the Westchester Power community energy program, has successfully completed the bidding for the renewal contract. The bid was awarded to Constellation New Energy for the electricity supply to run from January 1, 2021, to June 30, 2022. The default supply for Ossining will remain the 100% renewable energy option.

Through the Westchester Power program, residents and small businesses can access clean electricity supply and collectively have mitigated over 660,000 tons of greenhouse gases since 2016.

In the next few days, current active participants will be receiving a renewal notification letter from Constellation New Energy identifying Sustainable Westchester and the appropriate municipal seal, with all program details including instructions on opting out of the program. To stay in the program, you need to take no action – you will be automatically enrolled in the program on your first meter read day starting January 1.

Residents who have previously opted out, or are currently contracted with a private supplier will not receive a letter and will not be enrolled.

The program is very different from standard ESCO offerings – you are never locked in to your choice and you can change supply options, opt-out, or opt back into the program without any costs or penalties at any time. To do so, please visit www.sustainablewestchester.org/wp or call their offices at 914-242-4725.
