Propane Resilience Enhancement Program

The Propane Resilience Enhancement Program (PREP) grant is a two-part program (Parts A and B).  The overall goal is to ensure the adequacy of supply and affordability of pricing for residential and commercial consumers in Michigan who rely on propane as a primary energy source or as part of their preparedness and continuity plans.

  • Under Section 510 (2)(a) of PA 119 of 2023, the Michigan state legislature appropriated $5 million to develop and expand the storage capacity of wholesale and retail propane suppliers in Michigan who transport/distribute via rail or truck.
  • Under Section 510 (2)(b) of PA 119 of 2023, the Michigan state legislature appropriated $3 million to expand storage capacity connected to expanded propane pipeline and fractionation capacity.
