MPSC Greenlights DTE-Google Deal for Data Center Power

The Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) 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 Thursday that it had authorized the agreements, which will enable DTE Electric to supply power to the data center.

The approval comes as tech companies continue to expand their presence in Michigan, with many investing heavily in infrastructure and renewable energy sources.
