A 20-acre solar array, capable of powering 650-800 homes for a year, could be coming to the Wiscasset Municipal Airport next month if Wiscasset residents approve the project next month. The planning board approved the project on Monday. Residents will vote on the project in the annual town meeting referendum vote on Tuesday, June 8. The solar array, made from roughly 12,480 solar panels, would sit between the airport’s runway and Chewonki Creek. Cenergy Power, a California-based commercial solar developer that specializes in building solar facilities in airports throughout the company, is the parent company for the project.
