The Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) today granted Lakeshore Energy Services, LLC a license as an alternative gas supplier (AGS).

The Commission determined that the application is reasonable and in the public interest and that by granting this request for a license, opportunities for competition may expand.

The Commission conditioned the license on compliance with all other applicable provisions of Public Act 634 of 2002 and the Commission's orders and administrative rules. Failure to comply with any of these provisions may result in revocation of the license or other penalties. In addition, the granting of the license to Lakeshore Energy Services is conditioned on the provision of service to customers within a reasonable time. Failure to do so may result in revocation of the license.

Lakeshore Energy Services applied for a license on March 10, showing its compliance with the requirements for an alternative gas supplier under Public Act 634 and the Commission's order (U-13694), which established a licensing procedure for AGSs.

Lakeshore Energy Services is headquartered in Clinton Township, Mich.

The MPSC is an agency within the Department of Labor & Economic Growth.
