Energy New England’s Chief Strategy Officer Vin Ragucci recently met with Maine State Senator Brad Farrin for a productive discussion on the role of the Legislature and its impact on customer-owned utilities as public power entities are known in Maine.
As ENE’s client base in Maine continues to grow, it is expanding its legislative and regulatory relationships to better support client needs.
Also, part of the conversation included Scott Noyes of MC2 Energy Services who spoke about data center assistance and their microgrid concepts.
“The meeting provided a great opportunity to connect, exchange perspectives, and continue building a strong, collaborative dialogue moving forward,” Energy New England noted.
“The advantage that ENE provides is the combination of legislative and regulatory policy making discussion, development, and support with ENE’s unique abilities to navigate ISO-NE that make working with ENE is a huge benefit to others,” it said.
“The power markets are complicated and changing every day. ENE is able to help public power utilities to navigate the challenging markets and market forces to assure great service and the lowest possible costs,” ENE went on to say in thanking Senator Farrin for the time and conversation.
In a recent episode of the Public Power Now podcast, John Tzimorangas, President and CEO of ENE, detailed how Energy New England delivers value and benefits to its public power utility owners.
