emPower supports Michiganders in reaching their energy and household goals.
The program is dedicated to providing energy security, which means consistent, reliable and affordable access to essential energy services, heating, cooling and lighting—without sacrificing other necessities.
This commitment is carried out through a range of self-sufficiency services: Clearinghouse Self-Sufficiency, Digital Self-Sufficiency and Complex Care Self-Sufficiency. Each service is designed not only to address energy needs, but also to help households overcome barriers to long-term energy security and household sustainability.
