The "Merrimack Station Clean Air Project" is Eversource's largest air emissions control project in New Hampshire history.

To comply with the New Hampshire law governing mercury emissions, Merrimack Station management installed a single scrubber system on the facility's two coal-fired boilers. The plant's Clean Air Project was completed in 2012, ahead of schedule and under budget. The 440-MW Merrimack Station has reduced its mercury and sulfur dioxide emissions by more than 95% and is one of the cleanest coal-fired power plants in the nation.

It has recently been awarded the: 

• Green Apple Award for International Environmental Excellence by The Green Organisation
• Outstanding Environmental-Energy Technology Application Achievement Award by the Environmental Business Council of New England.
• Excellence in Concrete Award: Slip Formed Concrete by the Northern New England Concrete Promotion Association
