Let’s make solar bigger in Michigan

Solar Power in Michigan

Michigan's rising utility rates and strong net-metering successor program make solar an increasingly smart investment for homeowners across the state.

Electricity costs from utilities like DTE Energy and Consumers Energy have risen steadily, so the power your panels generate offsets a growing expense.

Michigan's Distributed Generation program credits homeowners for the excess energy their systems send back to the grid, helping balance summer production against winter usage.

Solar increases home value, and modern panels are engineered to produce efficiently even through Michigan's cloudier months and snow.

From Detroit and Grand Rapids to Ann Arbor, Lansing, and Warren, Michigan homeowners can meaningfully cut their dependence on the utility.

Battery storage is especially valuable in Michigan, where strong storms make grid resilience a real benefit.

Homeowners who purchase their system could historically receive a federal tax credit of up to 30% of the cost — though the federal residential credit ended for systems purchased after December 31, 2025, so current availability depends on ownership structure, state programs, and current law.
