From the meeting

In a September 25, 2026 memo, the Chebeague Climate Action Team recommended expanding town-owned solar power with a 30-40 kW rooftop system at the school. The memo said the project would cost about $100,000 to $130,000 before incentives and that the federal 30% investment tax credit (ITC) expires at the end of 2027. The team asked the Selectboard to set project parameters, seek grants or Green Bank financing, and draft an RFP for installers.

This is a time-sensitive capital opportunity tied to FY2027 construction.

Questions about this project

What is a pre-RFP?

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
