Barriers have developed that are standing in the way of advanced energy use in Michigan. That’s according to a report released recently by Michigan’s Institute for Energy Innovation. The institute says its report is the first serious effort to identify those barriers.The organization describes “advanced energy” as a “broad range of products that constitute the best available technologies for meeting energy needs today” and in the future.

Current State host Mark Bashore talks with IEI President Dan Scripps about promising sources of “advanced energy.”
