I work at the Farmington Energy Center, one of the largest solar sites in New England. As a solar field technician, I keep the energy center operating efficiently, and daily see how this solar energy center is delivering real, measurable benefits to our community. The energy center is doing what it was meant to do: delivering energy, creating good jobs and supporting the local economy. Solar energy centers like Farmington and Sanford power thousands of homes across the state. It’s part of a broader effort to diversify Maine’s energy mix and keep power affordable and reliable. Working at the solar energy center has shown me that dependable energy can be produced at home. ~ Bradley Greenleaf, New Sharon
