New offset agreement provides funds for tribe, protects species

New offset agreement provides funds for tribe, protects species by Edward French        The Passamaquoddy Tribe has entered into another environmental offset program that will generate funds for the tribe as its lands compensate for ecological impacts at other locations. With the tribe already having received millions through the carbon credit program, with its lands in Maine offsetting emissions from polluters on the other side of the country, it now has approved an agreement for an easement on its blueberry barrens to offset loss of habitat for a protected species at a new solar farm just down the coast in Maine.

Lawmakers scrutinize Maine s solar incentives at public hearing

Read Article The costs and benefits of Maine’s recent solar energy boom – and how to measure them – dominated testimony Tuesday in a legislative committee hearing that may result in a temporary moratorium on state solar energy incentives. Members of the Legislature’s Energy, Utilities and Technology Committee began to dig into conflicting data and viewpoints on the financial incentives enacted in 2019 to support the state’s clean-energy and climate goals. There was wide agreement among committee members that solar policies enacted two years ago have led to a wave of proposed projects, hundreds of millions of dollars in investment and a surge in jobs. But it also became clear that not all solar projects are created equal. Some – based on their size or location, for instance – are better deals for electricity customers than others.
