While at the Pure Michigan Business Connectand Consumers Energy Mid-Michigan Matchmaking event, Chris Holman speaks with John Butler, Senior Vice President for Human Resources and Shared Services at Consumer Energy. He speaks about Consumers Energy’s goal with Michigan Economic Development Corporation back in 2011, to increase Michigan spending by a billion dollars.
In partnership, the company asks that fellow Michigan businesses pay it forward: if Michigan succeeds, we all succeed. Celebrating the exponential growth of Michigan suppliers and statewide talent, he then discusses the upcoming dilemma of energy suppliers. Recent legislations have put a lot of pressure on the survival of coal plants, something he says will affect the supply base for energy plants in Michigan.
