The Regional Energy Hub Network is a pilot project of the LES Work Group to support and encourage regional collaboration around local energy work. Regional Energy Hubs provide coordination and support at the regional level so local groups can focus on local work. Each hub has one or more coordinator dedicated to connecting groups within the region, sharing successful strategies and models, organizing workshops and events, and providing local groups with important energy information and updates.
​
The NH Regional Energy Hub pilot is supported by the Thomas W. Haas Fund of NH Charitable Foundation, the Putnam Foundation, and the Jane’s Trust Foundation.
