Clean energy standard

Current understanding

Implementation of Michigan’s 100% clean-energy requirements.

Evidence log

2026-08-26 — Public utilities: other; development of clean technologies accelerator tariff; require. Amends sec. 61 of 2008 PA 295 (MCL 460.1061).: cross-connection with clean-technologies-accelerator-tariff: HB 6266 amends the 2008 clean energy law (PA 295) — the same statute that underpins Michigan’s clean energy standard — to add a new required utility tariff. (novelty: 2)
2026-08-26 — Businesses: other; clean and renewable energy requirements for data centers; provide for. Creates new act.: cross-connection with data-center-clean-energy-requirements: HB6264 would layer a data-center-specific clean/renewable energy mandate on top of Michigan’s existing statewide clean energy standard, raising questions about how the two regimes interact. (novelty: 3)
2026-04-30 — Public utilities: electric utilities; net metering program for rooftop solar; provide for. Amends sec. 173 of 2008 PA 295 (MCL 460.1173) & adds sec. 173a.: cross-connection with net-metering-rooftop-solar: HB5927 amends the same 2008 PA 295 statute that established Michigan’s clean energy standard, embedding rooftop solar net metering within that framework. (novelty: 2)
2026-05-12 — Energy: alternative sources; clean and renewable energy standards; eliminate. Amends title & secs. 1, 3, 7, 9, 11, 75, 77, 83, 87, 101, 173 & 191 of 2008 PA 295 (MCL 460.1001 et seq.) & repeals subpt. A of pt. 2 & sec. 179 of 2008 PA 295 (MCL 460.1022 - 460.1054 & 460.1179). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5710’26: HB5711 (passed chamber) would eliminate Michigan’s clean and renewable energy standards by amending 12 sections and repealing Subpart A of Part 2 and Sec. 179 of 2008 PA 295 (MCL 460.1022–460.1054, 460.1179); tie-barred to HB5710. (novelty: 3)
2026-05-12 — Energy: electricity; integrated resource planning process; require consideration of all energy sources. Amends secs. 6a, 6l, 6m & 6t of 1939 PA 3 (MCL 460.6a et seq.) & repeals sec. 6aa of 1939 PA 3 (MCL 460.6aa). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5711’26: HB5710 (passed chamber) would amend the IRP provisions of 1939 PA 3 to require consideration of all energy sources and would repeal sec. 6aa, potentially altering how clean-energy resources are weighed against other generation options in MPSC resource planning. (novelty: 3)
2026-05-21 — Businesses: other; cybersecurity requirements for large-scale solar energy facilities; provide for. Amends 2008 PA 295 (MCL 460.1001 - 460.1232) by adding sec. 112a.: cross-connection with solar-facility-cybersecurity: HB6011 amends the same statute (2008 PA 295) that underpins Michigan’s clean energy standard, layering cybersecurity obligations onto large-scale solar facilities built under that framework. (novelty: 3)
2026-06-04 — Energy: alternative sources; community solar facilities; provide for establishment of. Amends 2008 PA 295 (MCL 460.1001 - 460.1232) by adding pt. 7a.: HB6041 (introduced) would amend 2008 PA 295 by adding Part 7a to establish a community solar facility framework, expanding distributed renewable generation options alongside the state’s clean energy requirements. (novelty: 3)
2026-06-16 — Public utilities: public service commission; filing of rate cases for recovery of certain costs; prohibit. Amends 1939 PA 3 (MCL 460.1 - 460.11) by adding sec. 6bb.: HB6094 (introduced) would add Sec. 6bb to 1939 PA 3 prohibiting utilities from filing rate cases to recover certain costs, potentially affecting how clean-energy-related investments are recovered through general rate cases. (novelty: 3)
2026-06-23 — Energy: alternative sources; bidding requirements; update. Amends sec. 28 of 2008 PA 295 (MCL 460.1028).: HB6124 (introduced) amends MCL 460.1028 (Sec. 28 of 2008 PA 295) to update bidding requirements for alternative energy sources under the Clean, Renewable, and Efficient Energy Act. (novelty: 2)
