Additional Information and Required Notes:
Notes:
Power Sources—Maine law requires retail electricity providers to periodically provide information to their customers on the
mix of power sources used by the provider to serve their Maine customers’ load.
Emissions—Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is released when certain fuels are burned. It is considered a greenhouse gas and a major
contributor to global warming. Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) form when certain fuels are burned at high temperatures. They are
considered contributors to acid rain and ground-level ozone (or smog). Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) is formed when fuels containing
sulfur are burned. Major health effects associated with SO 2 include asthma, respiratory illness and aggravation of existing
cardiovascular disease. The production of electricity can produce other harmful emissions and have other environmental
impacts. Environmental impacts differ among individual power plants.
