Alternative Energy in Maine

Alternative energy isn't just for remote camps and cottages on little islands anymore. Using the sun's energy to heat your home or power your lights makes sense - and the state of Maine is prepared to help you finance it! If you're building a new vacation home (or the classic remote Maine camp), these links should help you get started.

US Department of Energy
http://www.eere.energy.gov/states/alternatives/resources_me.cfm
A brief, non-technical overview of renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies and a snapshot of the alternative energy resource base in Maine. Be sure to utilize the left hand navigation for alternative energy technology information. Information on this site is framed in terms intended to be understood easily by non-technical readers.


Maine Solar Energy Assocation
http://ellsworthme.org/MESEA/
Several great links to Maine alternative energy resources. Also lists upcoming events.

Maine Energy Info
http://www.maineenergyinfo.com/index.html
Not the easiest site to navigate, but there is good information and links about Maine's state programs that promote renewable energy investments including an overview of Maine's solar rebate program.

Bill & Debbi Lord's Solar House project
http://www.solarhouse.com/index2.htm
Worth reading if you are considering an investment in solar. Bill and Debbi documented what they did to eliminate their dependance on oil. The site includes good explanations of how to calculate costs and savings. There's also a short video!
