The Alliance for Michigan Power knows how important it is to know where your candidates stand on issues like energy before you head to the polls. AMP knows that Michigan’s future is more secure when we have an affordable, reliable, and sustainable energy mix and a strong energy infrastructure. That’s why we asked candidates for Governor, State Senate and the State House of Representatives questions to understand their views on energy policy and critical energy issues.

We recently discussed some of the ways local energy providers work to support local communities by participating in an array of community-focused projects and initiatives.

Summer is heating up—and with the higher temperatures come increased energy use and greater demand. All of these factors can have a significant impact on the rates we pay for electricity.

Building a brighter, cleaner energy future for all Michiganders isn’t just an investment in upgrading our state’s energy sector or electric infrastructure. It’s an investment in jobs, in local businesses, and in our communities.
