Maine’s Clean Energy Partnership was established to advance the state’s clean energy, climate, economic development, and workforce goals. Its work includes expanding the clean energy workforce and supporting innovation in clean technology products and services.
Clean Transportation As a rural and geographically large state, most Maine residents rely on personal vehicles as a primary mode of transportation.
Energy efficiency can reduce energy costs, greenhouse gas emissions, and reliance on fossil fuels, while managing demand and creating clean energy jobs. Building improvements in heating, cooling, weatherization, appliances, and lighting can reduce energy use, costs, and emissions.
