The Michigan Public Service Commission is taking all 75 of the recommendations made by a third-party auditor to improve storm response by Consumers Energy and DTE Energy.

The Michigan Public Service Commission will decide whether DTE Energy’s proposed rate increase is needed. On May 22, the commission has a meeting to hear from the public.

The Michigan Public Service Commission has granted a rate increase for DTE Gas. But that’s not the only order its given the utility.

Dana Nessel’s office argues that DTE and Consumers’ Energy are vastly overestimating the amount needed to improve service and reliability for residential customers.

An independent audit confirmed other reports finding that DTE Energy and Consumers Energy have worse-than-average storm outage response track records.

Activist group We the People protested outside DTE Energy's Detroit headquarters Wednesday, after the utility requested an annual $454 million residential rate hike.

Citizens for Local Choice wants local governments to decide whether solar or wind farms can be built instead of state government.

Last year, the state approved a price increase for DTE’s services, which means that the average residential customer’s monthly bill is estimated to be $6.51 higher than before.

A report on nuclear energy from engineering firm Enercon, commissioned by the Michigan Public Service Commission, says more plants will be needed in Michigan transition to net zero emissions by 2040.
