With the recent creation of the Department of Energy, the Public Utilities Commission will be transitioning the Executive Director's email to the Clerk's Office at the PUC. Beginning on July 1, 2021, please address docket filings going forward to the Chair rather than the Executive Director. Please update your contact information to send to ClerksOffice@PUC.NH.gov..
