"Losing power is not only an inconvenience; it can threaten the health and safety of Maine people. We know we can expect more severe storms in the future, which means that we need to take act now to strengthen our electrical grid, and that's exactly what the Grid Resilience Program will do. With these investments through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, we can improve our electrical grid, reduce the frequency and duration of power outages in the future, and better protect the health, safety, and welfare of Maine people."
