Finger Lakes Community Choice is a community choice aggregation program—comprising communities in Western New York—that enables participants to save money on electricity by pooling local electricity demand in order to leverage the collective buying power of their residents and small businesses in effort to secure more favorable terms on their electricity supply and community solar contracts, protect consumers, and support renewable generation sources. The program has two components: community choice electricity supply and a first-of-kind community choice solar offering. The participating communities with active contracts through the program include the Town of Geneva (ending December 31, 2024), and Villages of Brockport, and Lima. The prospective communities with no active contracts through the program include the City of Geneva, and the Village of Honeoye Falls. Community Solar The groundbreaking community choice solar offering launched in Fall 2021 in Brockport and Lima represents an important milestone towards achieving the NY State Climate Action Plan mandate to reach 70% renewables by 2030. Finger Lakes Community Choice was formed in partnership with Joule Community Power, a division of Joule Assets, Inc. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1557875891724-XOG8EALE9MCX39S23RGR/Untitled+design-12.jpg Home - The Team Photo by 36clicks/iStock / Getty Images https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1614868049601-UGPYZVHGD0TYS5NOM2AK/question+bulb2+800x515.jpeg Home - Will you be automatically enrolled?

By pooling local demand, municipalities can leverage the collective purchasing power of local residents and small businesses in effort to negotiate more favorable terms, lower costs, increase consumer protection, support renewable generation, and access the benefits of solar by subscribing to a local solar farm. When a community choice program launches, all qualifying residents and businesses are automatically enrolled on an opt out basis. Unless they choose to exit the program, participants receive the benefits that their municipality negotiated on their behalf. Those wishing to opt out may do so at any time with no cost. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1603299473198-VJJRM28KM4UYAMKI06Y3/sun++heart.jpeg Community Solar - With community solar, you can lower your annual electricity costs and help reduce carbon emissions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1603294633175-I42UL8ZWLM6YQUUJMB4M/soar+farm+at+sunrise+-+iStock-1134015740.jpg Community Solar https://www.fingerlakescommunitychoice.com/events daily 0.75 2021-02-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1614177910145-G4G1A7P2D9DE6AXSI08U/image-asset.jpeg Events https://www.fingerlakescommunitychoice.com/flcc-about daily 0.75 2024-02-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1557840370226-1VKNV1B2DQ7DOZ6LCKVX/Untitled+design-12.jpg About the Program - What is Community Power? Community Power is a concept and “toolbox” intended to put energy decision-making authority in the hands of communities rather than the State, transferring power to municipalities and enabling local autonomy. Community Power ensures that even the smallest communities are equipped with the legislative framework and tools to become active leaders in the transition to clean energy. The tools currently available in the Finger Lakes region are the community choice electricity supply and community choice solar. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1614178548618-WX15R8198O8HJAWOBZTF/seneca+lake+Depositphotos_40980129_xl-2015.jpg About the Program - What is Finger Lakes Community Choice? The City of Geneva, Town of Geneva and Villages of Brockport, Honeoye Falls, and Lima have partnered with Joule Community Power , a division of Joule Assets, Inc. to establish a community choice aggregation (“CCA” or “community choice”) program that provides access to renewable electricity at competitive rates. The program empowers the community to pool local electricity demand in order to leverage the collective buying power of residents and small businesses in effort to secure more favorable terms on their electricity supply and community solar contracts, protect consumers, and choose renewable generation sources. The program has two components: community choice electricity supply and a first-of-kind community choice solar program. The first-of-kind community choice solar offering launched in Fall 2021 in Brockport and Lima delivers guaranteed electricity bill savings (derived from NY State incentives for renewable generation) while reducing NY State carbon emissions—without requiring participants to install solar panels or sign a contract. This groundbreaking community solar program represents and important milestone towards achieving the NY State Climate Action Plan mandate to reach 70% renewables by 2030. The participating communities with active contracts through the program include the Town of Geneva, and Villages of Brockport, and Lima. The prospective communities with no active contracts through the program include the City of Geneva, and the Village Honeoye Falls. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1603295211696-B70ZKOFHUFGFULIFZO5R/brockport-iStock-842049354.jpg About the Program https://www.fingerlakescommunitychoice.com/renwables-team daily 0.75 2024-02-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1614175985664-5KE99TFXP5XJ9TO15GIH/brockport+-+village+of+square+-+no+background.png Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1614176008555-J66WUK6I5W2NM6F117KB/Geneva+-+town+of+sqaure+seal+-+transparent.png Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1625858921839-57625YW3W1EF85CNBBZG/NextEra+Energy+Resources+-+NEER.png Team - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/875e43b9-4c9a-428b-a9b2-26a70fe023a5/geneva+-+city+SQUARE.png Team - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1614176042026-24V4HFT2G3BIXUPMPX94/honeoye+falls+-+village+of+square+-+transparent.png Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1664564141582-SK1Z0LX3ULKTKV47U1NU/JCP-logo-tagline.png Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1664563521648-B6SGHZ5WWT90ARLZ4DMW/drs-logo.png Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1614176057997-ZYY00N9EZBOZO2ZHT04F/lima.png Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/6bed68db-fa4d-43da-9e59-0f3a26a78ad9/de-logo-stacked-cmyk_stacked.png Team - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1603295211696-B70ZKOFHUFGFULIFZO5R/brockport-iStock-842049354.jpg Team https://www.fingerlakescommunitychoice.com/auto-enroll daily 0.75 2021-02-18 https://www.fingerlakescommunitychoice.com/cca-supply daily 0.75 2023-04-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1614189402506-7T1IVDJDJ2LRQFRALFVY/image-asset.jpeg CCA Supply - What is Community Choice Electricity Supply?

By pooling local demand, municipalities can negotiate more favorable terms, designate preferred generation sources, and select a default energy service company for the community. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cd42b016f54f700012ab129/1614188968891-1QBF11VHN64D10Y0IIL6/people_sumersault_small.jpg CCA Supply - Benefits CHOICE The local authority designates the default energy supplier and chooses the mix of renewable versus standard supply.
