Michigan’s Renewable Energy  and Efficiency Success Stories

Our Energy Challenges

Consuming fossil fuels has improved our lives in many ways, but burning fossil fuels has also created threats to our environment. Burning fossil fuels has provided us with energy for lights, refrigeration, air conditioning, and electronics – such as radio, TV, and computers.
