Michigan’s EGLE’ Renewables Ready Communities Awards push renewable energy funding closer to its 2035 clean energy goals while funding local services.
The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) has announced a fresh round of funding totaling $3.67 million to support six communities as part of its ongoing Renewables Ready Communities Awards (RRCA) program. The awards provide financial incentives to local governments that host large-scale solar and battery storage projects, helping the state move toward its ambitious clean energy targets while funding local infrastructure and public services.
The six communities receiving funds in this latest round will help develop renewable energy facilities capable of powering more than 847,000 Michigan homes and businesses, according to EGLE’s June 2025 release.
