Maine’s first charging station for electric planes will be installed next spring at Knox County Regional Airport in Owls Head.

Airport manager Jeremy Shaw said a $294,000 grant from the Northern Border Regional Commission also will fund two electric vehicle chargers, and all three will be powered by a solar farm that’s being developed at the airport.
