Grand Valley and the city of Muskegon broke ground on the Michigan
Alternative and Renewable Energy Center Monday. The project aims to turn
Muskegon into a nationwide resource for alternative energy development.
The center will be a business incubator and education research center,
as well as a major demonstration project of energy technologies. It will
be the first commercial project in the world to integrate fuel cell
technology, a heat recovery system for heating and air conditioning,
solar/photovoltaics, and a nickel metal hydride battery storage system.
The Muskegon facility will take around 20 weeks to build and should be
open in spring, 2003.
