Michigan AG Filed Notice of Intervention in Utility’s Rate Hike Request

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel filed a notice of intervention in Consumers Energy Company’s electric rate case before the Michigan Public Service Commission. The utility seeks a rate hike of approximately $303 million annually, effective March 2025. Three months ago, the Commission approved a $92 million electric rate hike for the utility, effective March 2024. AG Nessel intervened in this case in order to make sure unjustifiable costs were not added to ratepayers’ bills.
