Tidal Power, hydroelectricity, geothermal energy and landfill gas: energy pioneers are exploring many new ways to create electricity. They’re looking at harnessing the power of our rivers and dams, our ocean tides, the heat deep below the earth and the methane breakdown in huge trash dumps. We'll look at new fuels that could possibly feed New Hampshire’s grid in the future and old ways that are getting a second look.
