Dirty Coal

Dirty Energy is not what Michiganders want

Wolverine Power Cooperative, Inc.  is poised to start construction on a huge coal-fired power plant in Rogers City.  According to the Michigan Public Service Commission, the Wolverine Power Cooperative does not need this plant and building it would cause the utility to raise rates by an average of $77 each month. Updated estimates put that cost considerably higher. These higher costs would also be forced on customers of Wolverine’s member cooperatives: Cherryland, Great Lakes, HomeWorks and Presque Isle Electric & Gas Cooperatives.  

Sign the petition today to ask Wolverine to invest in clean energy solutions for Michigan!

Wolverine has an opportunity to be a leader and to provide thousands of good-paying clean energy jobs for Michigan citizens.  Please do what is best for this community by dropping plans for a coal plant and instead supporting cheaper, clean energy options.
