Michigan AG Nessel Plans Intervention in DTE's $456M Rate Hike Request
TL;DR
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel plans to intervene in DTE Energy's $456 million rate hike request, criticizing it as "absurd" and questioning the need for such a substantial increase. DTE argues the hike is necessary for grid improvements and service reliability, but Nessel's office contends that the company has failed to justify previous cost increases. The Michigan Public Service Commission will consider the request, with a history of approving lower rate increases than initially sought by utilities.
