Michigan's energy grid should allow residents to invest in clean energy solutions. Unfortunately, we don't allow sensible, efficient investments like community solar. That's why Sen McBroom and I introduced legislation to allow community solar in Michigan. 1/2

Data on the relative reliability of our privately-owned utilities in Michigan. We can have cheaper, cleaner, more reliable power. It's not a pipe dream, it happens all over the country. https://t.co/jqgtf4cWgy
Michigan law restricts customer's generation of electricity. 1) utilities can refuse to connect systems once 1% of their energy comes from customers 2) clean energy systems are restricted to 120% of typical use 3) customers don't get a fair price for energy sold back to the grid https://t.co/wn2eRJs99z
Update: "DTE to give $100 credit to customers who remained without power as of Monday, Aug. 16" DTE is offering a $100 credit as well as the $25 credit advertised last week. If you were without power after Monday, 8/16, you qualify for this larger credit. https://t.co/QaL0YduJMC
Since 2016, Michigan residents paid DTE Energy $77,483,591 and Consumers $54,980,959 for gas we NEVER used! My bill, SB 822, will put an end to this and lower our energy bills: https://t.co/8M5D4uJcEq 1/
People are talking about exploding #gas prices but nobody seems to be talking about who lit the fuse and why. Do people not remember Trump's effort to boost prices to help the oil companies? https://t.co/yEwAoqyjiI https://t.co/d9piMzt02z https://t.co/nMI4eC9Cp3

<U+201C>Solar energy brings a lot of economic and environmental benefits, but not everyone is able to build their own solar array,<U+201D> Irwin said. <U+201C>These bills give people the option to invest in affordable renewable energy generation in their own communities.<U+201D> https://t.co/TN5mTEFNrP
