The Michigan Public Service Commission today approved orders establishing a new workgroup within its MI Power Grid initiative and adopting a definition of utility pilot projects while also extending deadlines for status reports on the effort.
MI Power Grid, launched in October 2019 with support from Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, is a multi-year stakeholder initiative to maximize the benefits of the transition to clean, distributed energy resources for Michigan residents and businesses. The effort has three areas of emphasis: customer engagement, integrating emerging technologies and optimizing grid investments and performance.
