Overview
- DTE is in advanced discussions with hyperscalers for over 3 GW of new load and with other operators for an additional 4 GW that have confirmed or near-final land agreements.
- The utility plans to meet the initial 3 GW through existing generation capacity supported by battery storage assets slated to begin construction in 2026.
- Longer-term data center growth will drive incremental investments in new baseload generation to maintain reliability and affordability.
- All new load commitments and resource plans will be incorporated into DTE’s 2026 Integrated Resource Plan, which is subject to regulatory approval.
- These efforts form part of a broader $30 billion five-year investment framework, with $24 billion for DTE Electric and $10 billion dedicated to grid upgrades.
