???? Vermont's Vision for a 100% Renewable Future

Vermont is embarking on an ambitious journey towards a completely renewable energy future. The key? A combination of energy storage, conservation, and a shift from fossil fuels to hydro, solar, and wind power. But the real game-changer lies in the Twin States Clean Energy Link, a proposed renewable energy transmission project in Vermont and New Hampshire.

This project, supported by the Biden Administration, offers bi-directional capacity with Quebec, allowing for an efficient exchange of renewable energy. When Vermont's wind and solar energy exceed local needs, the excess can be sent to Canada, conserving their hydro reserves. In turn, Vermont can draw on these reserves when renewable sources are low.

This innovative approach to energy sharing not only propels Vermont towards its renewable goals but also promises to reduce energy costs and address environmental injustices associated with natural gas plants in New England. It's a shining example of how strategic partnerships and forward-thinking can pave the way for a sustainable future. ????
