Electric City, Inc.

some people in Michigan never wake up the next day. Numerous homes in Michigan were built between 1950-59, and most have not had any electrical updates. This aging infrastructure is a major safety concern and electrical fire risk. Every year, an average of 500 homes in Michigan have a fire of electrical origin, and property damages costing close to 55 million. Faulty electrical wiring accounts for almost half of these fires, and electrical fire losses and fire death are significantly higher than non-electrical fires. In Michigan, there are an estimated 1.4 million Veterans and disabled adults ages 18-64, and just over 200,000 families with incomes less than $24, 000 per year. These men and women may be unaware that they are in danger of an electrical fire, do not know who to reach out to for electrical upgrades, and/or do not have the funds to make the appropriate upgrades. They need resources to make the electrical renovations so they are safe in their homes, and this is the reason Electric City, Inc was founded. We partner with local community organizations and unions, the government and larger companies to seek, evaluate and provide electrical upgrades by certified, licensed electricians to the aging infrastructure.
