Michigan is joining more than a dozen other states in suing the U.S. Department of Energy over a policy that reduces funding to help states run energy efficiency programs.

In states without policies to drive renewable energy, power prices could surge as federal tax incentives for clean energy disappear, according to Energy Innovation, a think tank.

A pro-clean energy group says the U.S. House reconciliation budget bill would virtually halt industry development of large-scale solar, wind and battery storage projects in Michigan and the nation.

Budget woes hit the Detroit Downriver suburb of Ecorse, following the cougars of Michigan, upgrading the state's power grid and supply and updates on the damage caused by ice storms in the Upper Peninsula.

We're using more power, some of the electric grid is a century old, and severe storms caused by climate change are battering the distribution system, all while trying to make the transition to renewable power and clean energy.

One of the first bills introduced this year in the Michigan House would make exceptions for some Upper Peninsula natural gas power generators in the state’s clean energy law.

Farms and other rural businesses in Michigan are slated to receive more than $22 million for clean energy projects under the USDA's Rural Energy for American Program.

The IRS says Michigan households claimed $134 million in IRA clean energy tax credits last year. A pro-electrification non-profit says that's just the beginning.

“We know that securing clean energy economic development opportunities not only grows our economy and supports local workers, but it also helps us meet our statewide climate goals," said Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
