Governor Janet T. Mills (D-ME) has signed LD 1270 to create the Maine Department of Energy Resources, a new cabainet-level Department that will lead state-level energy policy and programs, coordinate against State agencies and regional partners, engage stakeholders and address emerging opportunities and challenges for Maine.

The Department will address complex energy challenges facing Maine, such as affordability, grid reliability and aging infrastructure, while planning for a strong and secure energy future.  The creation of the Department was a budget-neutral initiative during a tight budget cycle.

“Maine families and businesses deserve access to energy that they can count on and afford — and establishing the Maine Department of Energy Resources is an important step toward an energy future that works for Maine people,” said Governor Mills.  “This new Department will allow the State to build a long-term approach and Maine’s energy needs, respond quickly to emerging challenges and strengthen regional and national energy partnerships to benefit our people and economy.”
