Utility bills for more than one-million DTE Energy gas customers will be going up.
The Michigan Public Service Commission approved a $110-million dollar rate increase for DTE which means homeowners will see an increase of about three dollars per 100 cubic feet of gas used.
DTE was seeking a larger increase to pay for natural gas system upgrades and to offset lower gas usage.
Under the settlement agreement, DTE will have to make a one-million dollar donation to THAW, The Heat and Warmth Fund.
