Upcoming Webinars
In 2023, the State of Michigan's budget allocated $30 million for the incentivization of renewable energy. As such, the Renewables Ready Communities Award will grant up to $5,000 per megawatt (MW) to Michigan municipalities involved in eligible renewable energy projects which attained local permits on or after October 1, 2023. In this webinar we will discuss the award's eligibility criteria, application process, and intended awardees.
This webinar is intended for Michigan communities that permitted or expect to host any portion of a renewable energy project of at least 50 MW, the developers of said projects, or any party interested in Michigan's renewable energy landscape. If you want to learn more about this funding opportunity, or are unsure if this applies to your community, you are encouraged to attend.
