Funder: Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE)

The Energy Sponsorship Program (MI) offers funding to Michigan-based organizations for events focused on energy efficiency, renewable energy, and sustainability. With a minimum of $250,000 available, grants can reach up to $10,000 for events or $250,000 for research. Successful applicants must provide a 1:1 match and share event materials with EGLE. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis until funding is exhausted.

NOTE: Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis until the deadline. Awards will be given on a first come, first served basis until funding is depleted.
EGLE will extend funding to continue offering support for event sponsorships and other training activities that provide Michigan businesses, communities, and citizens with information to make informed decarbonization decisions. Any Michigan-based organization is eligible to apply. The primary focus of the event must be related to energy efficiency, renewable energy, and/or sustainability. Sponsored events must share event materials (e.g., marketing information, summaries, presentations, links, etc.) with EGLE to publish publicly.
