Public Sector Consultants (PSC), a nonpartisan research and consulting firm, was awarded a grant in 2009 to create an innovative energy efficiency and renewable energy financing system. The team moved quickly, securing input from stakeholders and performing valuable energy and financing research to generate the structures, processes, and policies that would form Michigan Saves. In that same year, Michigan Saves was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, led by a diverse board of directors. Once established, the board engaged PSC to staff the organization, leveraging PSC’s experience, expertise, and history with Michigan Saves. Currently, there are 11 full-time PSC team members devoted to Michigan Saves, and several part-time resources who offer further support.
