How do you envision Vermont's Energy Future?

Vermont’s Energy Future: Regional Workshops
Description and Registration (below)
Vermont wants your help in shaping the future mix of electricity sources for the state. Five evening public workshops will be held in locations throughout the state this fall. You can attend the workshop closest to you. These workshops were authorized by the Vermont Legislature, endorsed by the Governor, and spearheaded by the Department of Public Service. The locations, dates, and times are listed below.
The Workshops are free but registration is required.
The goal of the workshops is to gather informed and thoughtful citizen and ratepayer input for the State and its electric utilities as they make decisions about how and where Vermont obtains its electric power for the coming decades. In 2012, contracts providing for two-thirds of the state’s electric power begin to expire. This leaves the future source of Vermont’s electricity open for discussion and examination. Choices about the future will have to be made and will weigh trade-offs among cost, reliability, environmental impact, large and small scale generation, and in versus out-of-state sources
All workshops will begin at 5:30 p.m. with light dinner fare and a prompt start at 6 p.m. and end around 10. During the workshops there will be a brief presentation, small group facilitated discussions, a chance to ask questions to a panel of experts, keypad polling to register your preferences and opinions, and an open mike at the end to record any additional thoughts you might have. The regional workshops will be held on the following dates in the following locations.
Oct. 3, 2007 St. Johnsbury Elementary School
Oct. 17, 2007 Frederick H. Tuttle Middle School Cafeteria, South Burlington, VT
Oct. 18, 2007 Montpelier Elks Club , Montpelier, VT
Oct. 29, 2007 Dean Technical Center, Springfield, VT
Oct. 30, 2007 Rutland Intermediate School, Rutland, VT
Please register and attend the workshop closest to you. To ensure broad and diverse participation from across the state, participants may only register for one workshop.
