Michigan is quickly becoming the international hub of the clean energy economy. With its alternative energy resources, infrastructure and supply chain in place that makes Michigan the best place in the world for the wind energy manufacturing industry to locate and create jobs. Michigan has a requirement for 10% renewable energy by 2015 that has led to increased alternative development in the state since it was passed in 2008. In 2010 wind power produced 0.3% of all of Michigans power. Finally, Traverse City would like to get 30% of its power from renewable sources by 2020. There are 292 wind turbines in operation and 240 more to be working by 2014.
