Additions to Detroit Edison’s Renewable Portfolio

 by Bruce Goodman

 DTE Energy is seeking Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) approval of two 20-year power purchase agreements and the associated renewable energy credits.  The weighted average price for the 3.2 MW landfill gas project in Orion and the 17 MW biomass project in L’Anse is $98.94/MWh.  This price is below the level assumed in the DTE Renewable Resource Plan.
