Michigan Regulators Clear Way for Google Data Center Power Deal

The Michigan Public Service Commission has approved special contracts between DTE Electric Co. and Google LLC for the utility to provide electricity for a data center in Wayne County's Van Buren Township.

The MPSC announced this approval on Thursday, stating that it will allow Google to purchase electricity from DTE at a discounted rate.

This deal is expected to benefit both parties involved, with Google saving money on energy costs and DTE generating revenue from the sale of electricity.
