Energy Affordability in Michigan: What You Need to Know

In Case No. U‑20757, Commissioners outline goals of the June 11, 2026 order aimed at improving energy affordability for Michigan residents.

Reliable, affordable utility service is essential to every Michigan household, business, and community. At the Michigan Public Service Commission, we believe every resident should have access to the electricity and natural gas services they depend on every day. That vision guides our work—from carefully regulating utilities to advancing policies that reduce energy burdens, strengthen energy security, and protect consumers. By holding utilities accountable, scrutinizing costs, and expanding access to assistance, we are working toward a future where Michigan is the most energy-secure state in the nation.

We recognize that life is expensive and we are taking steps to address energy affordability, especially for our most vulnerable residents. Hear from Commissioners about recent MPSC actions on affordable payment plans.
