Abstract
(HB6041 · 103rd Legislature) Energy: alternative sources; community solar facilities; provide for establishment of. Amends 2008 PA 295 (MCL 460.1001 - 460.1232) by adding pt. 7a. Latest action (2026-06-09): Bill Electronically Reproduced 06/04/2026
Why this matters
Community solar can broaden access to renewable generation for customers who cannot host rooftop systems, and it introduces a new class of distributed projects that utilities must interconnect and credit. How the program is structured within 2008 PA 295 will shape whether it complements or competes with utility-owned clean energy investments and existing net metering and distributed generation rules.
