Hooksett Council reviews interconnectivity study costs with Eversource and Revision

The Hooksett Town Council meeting on July 9, 2025, spotlighted the ongoing interconnectivity project, with discussions centering on rising costs and project viability. Council members, including Walzette and Lee Anne, reviewed the interconnectivity study currently in progress, noting that expenses for necessary upgrades at the plant have exceeded initial projections.

The council emphasized the importance of the agreement between the town and Eversource, which ensures that all costs related to the interconnectivity process will be managed by Revision, the contractor involved. This arrangement aims to protect the town from financial liabilities, with legal counsel currently reviewing the contract to ensure all indemnification measures are in place.

They reiterated their commitment to closely monitor the project's progress to ensure it remains on track and financially sound. The council's proactive approach highlights their dedication to balancing community development with fiscal responsibility.
