Michigan is home to three nuclear plants and four nuclear reactors. These facilities are economic drivers for the regions and communities they serve. According to a recent study by The Brattle Group, Michigan’s nuclear fleet accounts for 3,200 in-state, full-time jobs, contributes $596 million to state gross domestic product and provides $89 million in federal and $23 million in state taxes each year. These numbers are significant and illustrate the vital economic support existing nuclear facilities bring to Michigan families and businesses.
