Fun Solar Facts

Maine receives 33% more available solar energy than Germany, a world leader in solar technology adoption.

Covering just 1% of Maine's land mass to solar would capture enough solar energy to power our energy needs locally, indefinitely.

Modern grid-tied solar electric arrays have no moving parts - no batteries at all.
