National Clean Energy Week is all about celebrating the policies, industries, and innovations that power our daily lives. At DTE, we’re proud to be a leader in Michigan’s clean energy transformation, continuously looking for ways to reduce our impact on the environment and create a cleaner future for all. We call our commitment to sustainability our “CleanVision,” and that vision encompasses the bold steps we are taking to cut carbon and greenhouse gas emissions with a goal of achieving net zero by 2050.
Working to combat climate change is a major endeavor that will require effort and changes in behavior from all of us. It can be challenging to know how to help or where to start. That’s why we’ve developed a variety of options for our customers that make it easy to make a difference and have an immediate impact on a cleaner tomorrow. Take a look at our offerings below and discover what works for you.
Voluntary Renewable Energy Programs
Natural Gas Balance is an easy, affordable way to reduce the environmental impact of natural gas use. For $4 – $16 a month, DTE gas customers can offset 25 – 100% of the emissions created from the use of natural gas. The program combines the delivery of renewable natural gas (RNG) and the purchase of carbon offsets that protect Michigan forests in the Upper Peninsula. Sign up here.
MIGreenPower is an installation-free renewable energy program you can join to reduce your impact on the environment. With a simple sign-up and as little as $1 per month, you can attribute a greater percentage of your energy use to DTE’s wind and solar projects. Bringing more Michigan-made clean energy to the grid reduces carbon emissions and supports a cleaner Michigan for all. Enroll today at migreenpower.com.
