GEO is commissioning an independent report to assess how the state can support investment in large-scale clean energy infrastructure. The draft findings examine risks facing larger scale projects, evaluate current state-supported efforts, and explore potential programs to help overcome development barriers. The study draws on interviews with stakeholders, research, and independent analysis to provide a comprehensive look at Maine’s clean energy financing landscape.
GEO will host a webinar to present key findings and gather public input on July 28 at 1pm. Visit this page to register for the webinar. The draft report will be available starting July 28 on this page. GEO will hold a public comment period on the draft study from July 28 to August 8, 2025. Feedback will be used to inform revisions to the study and support future policy and program development. To submit comments, email tagwongo.obomsawin@maine.gov with the subject “Financing Study” by 5pm on August 8, 2025.
