Integrated Resource Planning — All Energy Sources Requirement (HB5710)
Current understanding
HB 5710 would amend sections 6a, 6l, 6m, and 6t of 1939 PA 3 to require Michigan’s integrated resource planning (IRP) process to consider all energy sources, and would repeal section 6aa. The bill is tie-barred to HB 5711’26. If enacted, it would change how the Michigan Public Service Commission and regulated utilities evaluate generation resources in IRP filings.
