Trees are Maines original solar energy storage system. Maine must place biomass on an equal footing with solar and wind as an alternative non-fossil fuel energy source. Maine taxes CMP and Versant customers to support Chinese solar panel production and German wind turbine makers. Spending the same amount of money on biomass will keep Mainers working and recycle the money back into the state’s treasury. Trees are Maine’s original solar energy storage system. Let’s use them. ~ Michael Hall, Trenton
