Commercial and Community Scale Solar Survey

Determining Demand for Mid-Size Installations

Workers Install Solar Panels

Thank you for participating in Maine’s Commercial and Community solar survey. CEI is committed to expanding access to solar energy in Maine. Over a decade ago, CEI realized the impact that flexible solar financing could have for Mainers when we started making solar loans to small businesses that were considered “unbankable” in Maine’s traditional financial system.

In order to properly plan its resource allocation over the next five (5) years, CEI is seeking more information on the size of the demand for financing solar projects that sit above residential and below utility scale.

The answers you provide will be used internally at CEI amongst staff and board members. They will not be published in part or aggregate or shared with any competitors or other respondents to this survey.
