Brookfield Renewable:
Brookfield Renewable develops innovative natural power solutions that accelerate the world toward a carbon-free future. We do so by combining 100 years of operating experience as a developer, owner, and operator of renewable power facilities with a commitment to health, safety, security, and environmental stewardship.
As Maine’s largest generator of renewable energy, Brookfield Renewable proudly operates hydro, wind, and storage facilities throughout the state. Our Maine facilities provide more than 840 MW of power, a generation equivalent to powering more than 500,000 homes annually. Now and into the future, our facilities remain critical in helping Maine meet its carbon emissions targets. We are passionate about the role we play in highlighting the natural beauty and recreational benefits of this great state. We provide more than 200 recreation sites throughout Maine and provide daily releases from May through Columbus Day on Class 2, 3, and 4 whitewater. Each year thousands of private and commercial paddlers enjoy Maine’s pristine waterways as a result of these scheduled releases.
Throughout Maine, we provide recreational access to some of New England’s best angling and fly-fishing locations. Whether you enjoy fall scenes on the Magalloway, Moose, or Penobscot rivers, the angling opportunities are endless. We provide real-time flows and elevations for our facilities via our waterflow website at safewaters.com.
Remember, river systems are wonderful resources, but they can also be dangerous. Conditions can change quickly and without notice. While the waters above and below a dam may look safe, conditions below the surface can present serious risks.
