It’s all about the grid: the past, present and future of energy in Maine

MAINE MONITOR • November 3, 2024

Maine Monitor editor Kate Cough, in a Mitchell Center talk, explored the past and future of energy in Maine. The talk focuses on the changes that have shaped Maine’s energy landscape since the late 1990s, when the Legislature effectively banned grid owners from owning and operating generation plants, and how those changes have influenced today’s landscape as the state looks to incorporate more renewable energy sources and meet its climate goals.
