A publication released Tuesday by the Vermont Energy Partnership (VTEP), ‘ Vermont Electricity at a Glance,’ examines Vermont’ s electricity portfolio. The publication includes the rates charged by each Vermont utility, the type of generation and amount of power supplied in megawatt-hours, the amount of renewable power, and (in most cases) the specific power generators and/or contracts.
‘ Vermont Electricity at a Glance’ also portrays Vermont’ s statewide increase in power rates in comparison with neighboring states. In 2012, Vermont’ s electricity rates rose 5 percent while rates stayed level or fell in New York or all other New England states (except Rhode Island, also 5 percent). However, the resultant rates of all the New England states are similar, except for Maine which is lower. See table below.
