Michael Rogers, vice president of communications with the Small Business Association of Michigan, talks with Andy Levin of Lean & Green Michigan. Lean & Green Michigan helps commercial, industrial and multi-family property owners finance energy projects, eliminate waste and save money through innovative financing solutions that make energy projects profitable for all parties – property owners, contractors and financial institutions and even municipalities which experience a growing tax base.

Lean & Green Michigan is a public-private partnership that uses Michigan’s new PACE statute but takes a market-based approach to energy finance and economic development. In essence, we leverage the PACE statute to maximum effect by bringing private capital to bear to solve companies’ energy problems, to create work for contractors and jobs for workers, and to green our communities.
