About the Collaborative
The Collaborative was formed to track and facilitate the implementation of the 67 recommendations of the 2008 NH Climate Action Plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the future while providing significant economic opportunities across the state.  The Collaborative is in effect “the keepers of the NH Climate Action Plan”.

Collaborative activities include identifying implementing partners who are or could be taking action, developing an inventory of progress against the 67 Climate Action Plan recommendations, working to remove barriers to their implementation, and engaging with a variety of stakeholders.

About the Collaborative

Our Goals
In order to reach the greenhouse gas reduction goals set out in the 2009 NH Climate Action Plan, implementation must occur at multiple levels across all sectors of society. It will require a high degree of coordination and integration, as well as flexibility, accountability, transparency, communication, and ongoing assessment and reporting. To accomplish this, the Climate Action Plan recommended the formation of the NH Energy and Climate Collaborative to oversee and guide implementation of the Plan.
