"A comparison with laws in Illinois and Minnesota shows the scope of the state’s ambition."
"Michigan is set to become the third state in the Midwest and twelfth in the country to require a shift to clean electricity.
Of all those states, Michigan is one of the most ambitious because of the extent of the change it is making.
Michigan’s target year for reaching 100 percent clean electricity is 2040, which is as soon or sooner than every state except for Rhode Island. (The bill that would do this is heading to Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s desk for an expected signature, as Aydali Campa and I wrote this week.)
And, Michigan is starting from a place of having unusually dirty electricity, with nearly two-thirds of its current supply coming from fossil fuels."
