MEREDA Morning Menu Breakfast - Dec. 12

MEREDA's Morning Menu Breakfast Event "Solar Power in Maine:  What you need to know about investing in solar in Maine" 

In 2019, the Maine Legislature passed a number of bills related to renewable energy development. After lagging our neighbors in the rest of New England in terms of solar deployment for the last decade, the new policy landscape promises to make Maine a leader in this area and provides substantial opportunities for local private investment for Maine's real estate community.  Come learn more about the new solar policy landscape in Maine, from design to financing to tax credits and the opportunities it provides for investors, owners, operators, developers, landowners and more.

Join MEREDA for breakfast on December 12, 2019 from 7:30 AM - 9 AM at the Portland Regency Hotel in Portland to learn more about the new solar policy landscape in Maine.
