Buyer for Fiberight’s Maine MSW-to-biofuel plant on the table

In Maine, local press reports there is a potential buyer for the Fiberight facility that has been closed since May who could bring the MSW-to-biofuel plant online by early 2021. The undisclosed company is still negotiating with the Municipal Review Committee whose waste is processed at the facility and owns the land it sits upon, but “substantial progress” is expected by mid-month when the committee’s 2021 budget is due for approval. The potential buyer is expected to take over Fiberight’s various liabilities such as back rent and taxes owed.
