This week VPR's Public Post reports on broadband internet coming to the Rutland County town of Chittenden; municipal solar power projects that are going forward, and project that have ground to a halt; developments in communities hosting potential wind power projects; and a net-zero ski lodge being built in the Northeast Kingdom.
