Labor: hours and wages; prevailing wage; require on certain solar and wind energy projects, and require contractors to obtain a registration to perform work on certain projects. Amends secs. 1, 2, 8 & 22 of 2023 PA 10 (MCL 408.1101 et seq.) & adds secs. 2a & 25a.

This bill expands existing state laws to require contractors working on specific solar and wind energy projects to register with the state and pay prevailing wages and fringe benefits to their workers. It defines "energy facility projects" as new construction, major alterations, or repowering of solar or wind systems with a capacity of at least 2 megawatts, as well as large-scale energy storage systems. The legislation applies to both private and public entities that contract for or directly employ labor on these projects, ensuring that workers receive the same pay and benefits as those on other state-funded construction work. By adding new sections to the prevailing wage act, the bill creates a formal registration system specifically for contractors involved in these renewable energy initiatives.
