Eaton County PACE District

How it works

In 2014, the Eaton County Board of Commissioners adopted a Property Assessed Clean Energy District, or PACE Program. The county says the program exists to promote the use of renewable energy systems and energy efficiency improvements by owners of certain real property.

The page describes PACE as a property-owner-based method of financing. The county says the district provides funds for energy projects and that the Eaton County Treasurer, together with the Eaton County Board of Commissioners, participates in the program.

What the money covers

The page states that the program is for:

• Renewable energy systems
• Energy efficiency improvements

No other covered measures are listed. The page does not mention wildfire home-hardening work, rebates, direct grants, reimbursement, interest rates, repayment terms, or maximum loan amounts.

County context

The county says Eaton County leads the state in the number of PACE projects in any single county, with 4 projects completed, all in Delta Township. The page also says Delta Township leads the state in the number of PACE projects per township.

What to know

This is a financing district rather than a grant or rebate. The page is high-level and does not provide a homeowner application walkthrough or a current funding window.
