Last update: an hour ago

Energy & Jobs: U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright visited Lincoln to highlight Form Energy’s planned 85-megawatt battery storage project at the former Lincoln paper mill site, pitching it as a boost to grid reliability in extreme winter weather and citing hundreds of jobs. Housing: Caribou is weighing turning a city-owned snow-dump lot into up to 33 homes, while Ellsworth faces a proposal to create 11 residential lots on Nicolin Road tied to a local logging family. Public Health: Maine’s marketplace health insurance rates are set to jump again in 2027, with one report warning of steep increases for thousands of Mainers. Food Safety & Lawsuits: A New Jersey family filed a wrongful-death suit over a badminton racket failure that killed a 6-year-old in Maine, and separate litigation continues over cyclospora illness tied to recalled lettuce. Local Economy: Maine’s sports handle rose 41% in July to $51.8 million, and a Pease Development Authority study in neighboring New Hampshire pegged 2025 impacts at $2.3B in wages and salaries. Community & Workforce: Deer Isle is tackling workforce housing shortages, and a Bangor recovery center is seeking city support.
