Sustainable Westchester’s Westchester Power (WP) program

We’re happy to announce that the Village of Hastings-on-Hudson and our neighboring communities will be renewing our participation in Sustainable Westchester’s Westchester Power (WP) program. The program has been providing residents and small businesses a clean electricity supply choice since 2016 and has mitigated over 660,000 tons of greenhouse gases. The program provides competitive fixed price electric supply and easy access to NY sourced sustainable, renewable energy.

Sustainable Westchester administered a competitive bidding process among registered New York energy suppliers and on September 30 awarded Constellation New Energy the electricity supply contract for January 1, 2021, to June 30, 2022. The default supply for the Village of Hastings-on-Hudson will remain the 100% renewable energy option, but the program also offers a standard supply option which is a mix of fossil fuel and renewable energy. You can switch between supply options at any time.

You should have received a renewal notification letter with all program details including instructions on opting out of the program. To stay in the program, you need take no action - you will be automatically enrolled in the program on your first meter read day starting January 1.

The program is very different from standard ESCO offerings - you are never locked into 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.
