The NHSaves^® utility partners - Eversource, Liberty, New Hampshire Electric Cooperative, and Unitil - engaged KSV to develop a statewide awareness campaign that would resonate in a way that felt unique to the wide-ranging experiences of those living and working in the Granite State.

“What if we do nothing instead?” 

So asks the uncertain doppelganger of our decision-making hero in KSV’s latest “Uncertainty” energy-efficiency campaign.
