PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • November 2, 2020
Longroad Energy and Clearway Renew LLC, which submitted losing bids, say the state may not have adequately considered the viability of some projects awarded contracts. They are asking the Maine Public Utilities Commission, which granted the awards after an eight-month evaluation process, to confirm that the selected projects have the wherewithal to proceed, and to require winners to set aside funds, presumably to be paid to the state, if they fail to achieve commercial operation.
