  Natural Gas (29.4%)
  Hydroelectric (26.9%)

  Other (2.5%)

This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in the U.S. state of Maine, sorted by type and name. In 2022, Maine had a total summer capacity of 5,126 MW through all of its power plants, and a net generation of 12,763 GWh. [2] In 2023, The electrical energy generation mix was 29.4% natural gas, 26.9% hydroelectric, 21.6% wind, 13.7% biomass, 5.1% solar, 0.6% petroleum, 0.4% coal, and 2.5% other. Small-scale solar, which includes customer-owned photovoltaic panels, delivered an additional net 607 GWh of energy to the state's electrical grid in 2023. This compares to the 582 GWh generated by Maine's utility-scale photovoltaic plants. [1]

During 2021, renewable sources generated 74% of all electrical energy from Maine, making it one of the top-five U.S. states. Maine's share of wind generation is the largest among New England states, and its share of biomass generation from the wood industry and municipal waste sources is the largest in the United States. Maine's electricity generation has not met the in-state demand in recent years, and about one-quarter of its electricity consumption was imported from Canada. [3]

Nuclear power stations

The Maine Yankee Nuclear Power Plant generated 860 MW of base load electricity during years 1972–1996. Decommissioning was completed in 2005. [4] [5] Maine had no utility-scale plants that used fissile material as a fuel in 2019. [1]

Coal-fired

The Mason Station in Wiscasset was a coal-fired plant built in 1941-42, with the capability of producing 153,500 kilowatts giving it the status, at that time, of Maine’s second largest electric generating plant, W.D. Wyman Station in Yarmouth was the largest with a capacity of 225,000 kilowatts.

Central Maine Power and Wiscasset were good neighbors for many years. The Mason Station was many things to the community. It brought economic growth to the town and livelihood to its employees. It produced electricity at a time when it was needed most, and, being the largest taxpayer in town, it helped keep the mil rate low for other taxpayers.

For several years in the 1970s, Maine Salmon Farms raised Pacific Coho salmon in the warm water outflow from Mason steam station in Wiscasset. The warm water prevented icing and allowed the young fish to grow even in the cold winter months.

The Rumford Cogeneration and S D Warren Plants previously burned coal as primary fuel, and continued to burn it as secondary fuel in 2019 (see Biomass). [7] Maine had no operating utility-scale plants that used coal as a primary fuel in 2019. [1]

Energy in the United States is obtained from a diverse portfolio of sources, although the majority came from fossil fuels in 2021, as 36% of the nation's energy originated from petroleum, 32% from natural gas, and 11% from coal. Electricity from nuclear power supplied 8% and renewable energy supplied 12%, which includes biomass, wind, hydro, solar and geothermal.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Renewable energy in India</span>

India is the world's 4th largest consumer of electricity and the world's 3rd largest renewable energy producer with 40% of energy capacity installed in the year 2022 coming from renewable sources. Ernst & Young's (EY) 2021 Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index (RECAI) ranked India 3rd behind USA and China. In FY2023-24, India is planning to issue 50 GW tenders for wind, solar and hybrid projects. India has committed for a goal of 500 GW renewable energy capacity by 2030. In line with this commitment, India's installed renewable energy capacity has been experiencing a steady upward trend. From 94.4 GW in 2021, the capacity has gone up to 119.1 GW in 2023 as of Q4.

There is a large array of stakeholders that provide services through electricity generation, transmission, distribution and marketing for industrial, commercial, public and residential customers in the United States. It also includes many public institutions that regulate the sector. In 1996, there were 3,195 electric utilities in the United States, of which fewer than 1,000 were engaged in power generation. This leaves a large number of mostly smaller utilities engaged only in power distribution. There were also 65 power marketers. Of all utilities, 2,020 were publicly owned, 932 were rural electric cooperatives, and 243 were investor-owned utilities. The electricity transmission network is controlled by Independent System Operators or Regional Transmission Organizations, which are not-for-profit organizations that are obliged to provide indiscriminate access to various suppliers to promote competition.
