This week is Clean Energy Week across the country and right here in Michigan, which means if you’re looking for ways to reduce your environmental impact, now is the perfect time to do so. As part of DTE’s CleanVision for a healthier, brighter, cleaner future for all, we’ve made it easy for our customers to bring sustainability into their homes.
With a wide variety of programs and products to help create a cleaner tomorrow, you’re sure to find something that works for you. Check out these options:
Natural Gas Balance
Our CleanVision Natural Gas Balance program is an easy and affordable way to balance the environmental impact of natural gas use. For $4 – $16 a month, DTE Gas customers can balance 25% to 100% of the emissions created from natural gas use. The program combines the delivery of renewable natural gas (RNG) and the purchase of carbon offsets that protect Michigan forests in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.

MIGreenPower
Our CleanVision MIGreenPower program enables you to attribute even more of your electricity use to renewable energy, in addition to the 15% you already receive as part of your energy mix. Joining MIGreenPower helps to accelerate the development of new wind and solar projects in Michigan. These projects bring more clean energy onto the grid, reducing emissions and creating a cleaner Michigan for everyone.
Due to current market conditions, the energy and capacity credits MIGreenPower customers receive exceed the program’s subscription fee; this means you can enroll in MIGreenPower now at no additional cost to your monthly bill. Start supporting more Michigan-made renewable energy today!
Rooftop solar and private generation
While we do not install rooftop solar or other private renewable energy generation systems for our customers, we support customers who want to take this step. Our company plays an important role in safely connecting these systems to the grid and can work with you and your installer through all steps of the interconnection process. Learn more about connecting a private generation system.
