New Hampshire (NH) data center power coverage

Real, sourced large-load tariff and interconnection research on file for New Hampshire — never inferred, never scraped, never implied beyond what's actually been checked.

Large-load tariffs

New Hampshire utilities (Eversource, Unitil, Liberty) -- HB 1722 only

Law or process only Checked 2026-10-12
ThresholdNo tariff or threshold found
StatusHB 1722 (2026) would require the PUC to create a separate classification and tariff schedule for large-energy-use retail facilities, which could include data processing centers. Its outcome after January 2026 was not confirmed and no PUC docket was found.

Interconnection & regulatory guidance

New Hampshire — no tariff or moratorium enacted yet; Gov. Ayotte has stated support for one

Contact guidanceNo large-load tariff or legal moratorium exists yet -- this entry exists to record real, current political context, not an adopted rule. A live, concrete example: Eversource was asked to study a proposed 200-350 MW data-center project in Bow, NH (tied to the former Merrimack Station coal plant site) -- an early-stage interconnection feasibility study, not an approved project.
ThresholdNot applicable -- nothing is enacted yet.
ProcessGov. Kelly Ayotte publicly opposed the Bow project and stated she supports instituting a statewide moratorium on data-center construction 'for the time being,' but as of this research no bill or formal proposal had been filed to that effect.
SourceNHPR (nhpr.org) and Boston Globe (bostonglobe.com) coverage of the Bow project and Gov. Ayotte's stated position, September 2026.
