Maine PowerOptions is an energy-purchasing consortium that serves as an
aggregator for Maine's local governmental and non-profit organizations. Our
group-purchasing programs are designed to increase the buying power of eligible
participant organizations for the purchase of fuel oil and electricity. The result is
lower energy costs for Maine's non-profit organizations, higher education
institutions, health care organizations, water, sewer, and school districts, and
municipalities. Maine PowerOptions is a program co-sponsored by the Maine
Health and Higher Educational Facilities Authority and the Maine Municipal
Bond Bank.

The purpose of Maine PowerOptions is to bring together or "pool" local
governmental and non-profit organizations, analyze their combined energy needs,
and negotiate pricing with suppliers to achieve the best value for our member
organizations. By joining the Maine PowerOptions aggregation your
organization's buying power will be greatly enhanced with all future electricity
and fuel oil purchases. The organization is currently comprised of almost 800
member organizations throughout the state. On behalf of our members, we
assume all administrative responsibilities associated with energy bids and
contract negotiation process with potential suppliers. Competitive pricing offers
are then presented to members for consideration and voluntary participation.
Maine PowerOptions will benefit your organization by:
Providing cost-saving energy and informational opportunities.
Determining the needs of your organization and working with suppliers
to meet those needs.
Serving as your advocate in negotiations with utilities, suppliers and
regulatory agencies.
Monitoring the quality of the supplier service and product.
Continuously assessing the needs for new programs such as natural gas,
energy management, demand response and carbon offsets.
