Consumers Energy is Michigan's largest utility, providing electric service to 1.8 million customers and natural gas service to 1.7 million customers across the Lower Peninsula. The company is a subsidiary of CMS Energy Corporation.
Consumers Energy operates under regulation by the Michigan Public Service Commission. The company has committed to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2040 and is investing heavily in renewable energy and grid modernization.
Consumers Energy bills include a Power Supply Cost Recovery (PSCR) charge that fluctuates based on fuel costs. Michigan has limited retail choice for residential customers, so most customers receive bundled service from Consumers Energy.
