Michigan State University will release of a new investigative report that reveals -- for the first time -- the amount of wind and solar energy Michigan can generate by redeveloping underutilized industrial areas as renewable energy parks.
The report also calculates the potential for such a development strategy to spin-off jobs and leverage private investment statewide.
The event will be held Tuesday, Jan. 27 at 9 a.m. at Avastar Park, a former General Motors plant at 2150 Alpine Ave. N.W. in Grand Rapids.
