07/29/2009

A coalition of legislators, business leaders and clean energy advocates Monday joined State Rep. Dan Scripps, D-Leland, in front of MasTech Manufacturing in Manistee to announce a plan to catapult Michigan forward in alternative energy and make the state a magnet for clean, renewable energy jobs. The plan builds on legislation passed last year and further positions Michigan to meet growing demand for clean energy workers by offering powerful incentives for renewable energy development and manufacturing, energy efficiency and alternative energy production.
