A bill to amend 2008 PA 295, entitled “Clean and renewable energy and energy waste reduction act,” (MCL 460.1001 to 460.1211) by adding sections 235 and 237.
Senate Bills 152 and 153 would establish a regulatory framework to allow for the creation and interconnection of community solar facilities in the State. They would require an electric provider to connect a community solar facility within the provider's service area to its electric grid and provide a subscriber of the facility a credit on the subscriber's electric bill. The Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) would have to establish a bill credit rate for the calculation of credits and regulate the creation, financing, grid-interconnection, and business practices of community solar.
