PSNH is more than an electric utility. We’re people – who

live in, work in and care about the state of New Hampshire.

That’s why community service is such a large part of

our culture. From the volunteer hours our employees

donate every year to corporate grants for environmental

initiatives and partnerships with organizations like the

Student Conservation Association and the Society for the

Protection of New Hampshire’s Forests, we’re dedicated

to the protection and conservation of New Hampshire’s

character. We do this, not just because our customers live in

New Hampshire, but because we do as well. Preserving our

communities – it’s how we support your life in every moment.
