ReEnergy Ashland: ReEnergy Ashland, located in Ashland, ME Aroostook County, powers 37,000 homes annually! How? They utilize organic matter, also known as biomass. ReEnergy burns the biomass, creating steam that can be used to generate electricity!
We visited ReEnergy’s plant in Ashland to get a glimpse of how the business is run. Our team at Undiscovered Maine was very impressed by the complexity of ReEnergy’s operation. From monstrous machines that could be described as mechanical dinosaurs, to rooms lined with screens and computers all with a specific design and purpose to keep the factory running smoothly.
The knowledge and know-how conveyed by the employees here was astounding. We got the sense that, if you work at ReEnergy, you know what you’re doing.
ReEnergy is always seeking talented help! If you believe you have the skills to work with biomass, work in the renewable energy field, or if you would just like more information, check out ReEnergy’s career page here!
ReEnergy’s business doesn’t solely rely on selling clean energy, however. They also offer asset management services. These include stakeholder relations, financial oversight, and even administrative support! Read about these services here.
