Miller Applauds DTE’s Commitment to Cleaner, Reliable Energy
WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Representative Candice Miller (MI-10) issued the following statement after DTE Energy’s announcement that it will build a natural gas turbine plant in China Township, Michigan to replace the Belle River power plant, which DTE is retiring:
“I applaud DTE Energy’s commitment to providing Michiganians with cleaner, safer, more reliable energy. I strongly believe that energy independence equals national security and that we must continue to produce more reliable, affordable domestic energy in an effort to wean the U.S. off its reliance on foreign fossil fuels. However, I am also a fierce advocate of the environment and understand how important it is that we increasingly invest in cleaner energy technologies. Today’s announcement by DTE Energy underscores their dedication to doing both and I applaud their efforts.”
