Macomb County pushes manufactures to go after alt energy

There's green building and then there's building green. Macomb County officials are trying to get local manufacturers to do both at its latest workshop,
"Alternative Energy Manufacturing 101".

Held this Friday, the conference will focus on wind, solar and new electric technology industries and how local manufacturers can take advantage of them. Doing so can include both incorporating the products from those industries in their facilities or using those facilities to build those products.

The idea is that doing either, or both, factories will become more sustainable environmentally and economically, while also diversifying their client base. Those attending can speak to businesses that have already implemented green thinking, among other activities that will point them in the right direction.

The workshop will go between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. at the Macomb Intermediate School District Educational Service Center, 44001 Garfield Road in Clinton Township. It costs $50 to attend and includes a complimentary breakfast and lunch. For information, click here or call (586) 469-5285.
