EXCERPT: While the deadline to file bills is not until Jan. 10, lawmakers also are likely to resume debates on topics including climate change. House Minority Leader Billy Bob Faulkingham, R-Winter Harbor, said Republicans want to repeal Maine’s net energy billing program, which provides generators with credit for renewable power they produce and send to the electric grid, and a 100-megawatt cap on hydropower plants. Senate Minority Leader Trey Stewart, R-Presque Isle, cited the same issues.
