The Community Power Grant Program supports local energy efficiency, sustainability, and clean energy initiatives that reduce energy costs and promote environmental stewardship.

The Village of Saranac Lake is committed to advancing community-based climate and energy goals through practical and locally beneficial investments.

Formed in partnership with Joule Community Power, a division of Joule Assets, Inc., Village of Saranac Lake Community Power is a Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) program that enables the Village to pool local electricity demand in order to leverage the collective buying power of their residents and small businesses in an effort to secure more favorable terms on their energy supply, protect consumers, and support renewable generation sources. 

Participants can opt-out or opt back into the program at any time with no penalty by phone or online form. By participating in the program, residents and small businesses can access competitively priced electricity supply with no individual contract and their utility provider will not change.
