State Seeks Suppliers for REC Add-On Product Offered to Default Service, Other Customers

The Maine PUC is seeking proposals from providers to manage and supply, for a five-year term beginning April 1, 2016, the state-wide Maine Green Power (MGP) program, which is a REC add-on product offered to all distribution customers, including default service and competitive supply customers.

The Maine Green Power program allows residential and small commercial electricity customers who elect to participate to support renewable energy through the provision by the supplier of renewable energy credits (RECs) equal to all or a portion of the customers’ electricity usage during the green power supply term.

Currently, 3Degrees, Inc. manages the green power program.
