The U.S. District Court has lifted the temporary injunction preventing construction of Segment 1 of the Clean Energy Corridor.

The ruling by the First Circuit Court is a victory for Maine’s clean energy future. The NECEC has met every benchmark in a rigorous, three-year permitting process, resulting in $300 million in contracts to Maine construction companies and nearly 80% of jobs going to Maine workers. The Clean Energy Corridor will eliminate over three million metric tons of dirty emission from the New England energy grid each year by replacing fossil fuels with clean hydropower, reducing pollution, and improving air quality in Maine for generations to come.
