Collaborative Implementation of the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is designing the Greenhouse Reduction Fund (GGRF) to mobilize financing for clean energy projects across the country. Michigan stands to receive substantial funding from the GGRF, but the program’s ultimate success, especially in low-income and disadvantaged communities, will depend on effective, collaborative program design.

Michigan Saves is dedicated to supporting accessible, equitable, and just investments in carbon reduction strategies throughout Michigan.
