Michigan Democrats, now in control of both chambers of the state legislature and the governor's office, introduced a package of bills last week meant to meet the state's goal of reaching 100% clean energy through both rapidly phasing out coal and other fossil fuels and drastically cutting into carbon transportation emissions by the year 2035.
Whitmer, a Democrat, has described the plan as a"roadmap" to reach economywide carbon neutrality by 2050 with"interim 2030 goals." So far, at least 11 other U.S. states have released plans to commit to 100% clean or renewable energy, accounting for more than one-fourth of total U.S. electricity consumption. But not all are created equal.
Earlier this year, Gov. Tim Walz signed legislation requiring state utilities to get 100% of their electricity from carbon-free sources by 2040. Importantly, Michigan's proposal would consider nuclear power a clean energy source, like solar and wind, to allow it to generate carbon-free resources.
