Fair question. There isn't one — here's how it works for Biddeford households, in plain English.
Where the discount comes from
Maine supports solar farms across the state that feed clean energy into the grid. When you join, you're allocated a share of one farm's output — and the credits from your share land on your CMP bill every month.
What changes for you
Only the number at the bottom. CMP still delivers your power over the same wires with the same reliability. Nothing gets installed, and you keep 15% of the credit value.
How enrollment works
Enrollment is with Ampion, a public benefit corporation that's been running solar programs across the country since the state programs opened up. You sign up online, nothing gets installed at your home, and credits appear on your existing bill.
Questions Biddeford neighbors ask
Is this a government program?
The savings come through Maine's state-supported clean energy programs, but enrollment is with Ampion Renewable Energy, a public benefit corporation — not a government agency. Your CMP service stays exactly the same.
Does it cost anything to join?
No sign-up fees, deposits, equipment, or installation costs. Nothing is installed at your home and there's nothing to buy.
How much can I save on my CMP bill?
Most households keep 15% of their monthly credit value as savings.
I rent in Biddeford. Can I still join?
Yes. Your share lives at a solar farm, not your building, so renters qualify the same as homeowners — no landlord involvement needed.
Will my lights or service change?
No. Same CMP delivery, same wires, same reliability. Credits from your share are applied to your bill each month.
Will I get one bill or two?
In this state, community solar uses a two-bill setup. Your utility bill arrives as usual with your solar credits deducted from it, and your solar provider bills you separately for those credits at a discount. Added together you pay less than before — the second bill is not an extra charge, it's you paying for the credit that already came off the first one. See the arithmetic worked through.
