DETROIT, May 30, 2025 — DTE Energy (NYSE:DTE), Michigan’s largest producer of and investor in renewable energy, announced today the company is seeking proposals for renewable energy projects. The projects total approximately 1,350 megawatts and support DTE Electric’s CleanVision Integrated Resource Plan (IRP), continued demand for the company’s MIGreenPower program, and Michigan’s renewable energy standard of 60% of energy coming from renewable sources by 2035. Each of these initiatives are prerequisites for DTE to achieve its overarching carbon reduction goals.
DTE is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for 1,350 megawatts of wind and solar projects to achieve commercial operation by December 31, 2028. Projects must be located in Michigan and interconnected to the Midcontinent Independent System Operator or distribution-level transmission. Interested bidders should register their company information on the PowerAdvocate website and, once registered, can attend a virtual pre-RFP conference on June 10, 2025. Bids are due September 12, 2025, and the company anticipates executing contracts next summer.
DTE is bringing three additional solar parks online in 2025, raising its renewable energy portfolio to a total of 20 wind parks and 32 solar parks, which together will generate enough clean energy to power more than 800,000 homes. The company plans to add more than 1,000 megawatts of new wind and solar each year starting in 2026. By 2042, DTE expects to have more than 15,000 megawatts of renewable energy generation capacity, enough to power the equivalent of approximately 4 million homes.
