List of power stations in Michigan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sources of Michigan utility-scale electricity generation in gigawatt-hours, full-year 2025:[1]
  1. Natural gas: 53,148 (41.3%)
  2. Coal: 29,308 (22.8%)
  3. Nuclear: 27,534 (21.4%)
  4. Wind: 10,116 (7.87%)
  5. Solar: 2,860 (2.22%)
  6. Biomass: 2,097 (1.63%)
  7. Petroleum: 1,733 (1.35%)
  8. Hydroelectric: 1,336 (1.04%)
  9. Other gases: 352 (0.27%)
  10. Other: 88 (0.07%)

This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in Michigan, sorted by type and name. In 2024, Michigan had a total summer capacity of 32.1 GW through all of its power plants, and a net generation of 124,200 GWh.[2] In 2025, the energy mix was 41.3% natural gas, 22.8% coal, 21.4% nuclear, 7.9% wind, 2.2% solar, 1.6% biomass, 1.4% petroleum, 1% hydroelectric, 0.3% other gases, and less than 0.1% other.[1] Coal use has decreased by half over the last decade, replaced by natural gas and renewables. 60% of renewable generation is wind energy.

Michigan imports all coal and nuclear fuel (uranium), and 82% of natural gas. A goal to produce over 10% of electricity from in-state renewable sources was set in 2015. Major electric companies in Michigan include DTE Electric Company (11,000 MW) and Consumers Energy (9,000 MW).[3]

Nuclear power stations

[edit]

Nuclear power is a significant source of electrical power in Michigan, producing roughly one-quarter of the state's supply. The two active nuclear power plants supply Michigan with less than 30% of its electricity.

Coal power stations

[edit]
Trenton Power Plant

Coal power is the second leading source of electricity in Michigan. Although Michigan has no active coal mines, coal is easily moved from other states by train and across the Great Lakes by lake freighters. The lower price of natural gas is leading to the closure of most coal plants, with Consumer Energy planning to close all of its remaining coal plants by 2025,[6] and DTE planning to retire 2100MW of coal power by 2023.[7] All coal plants in Michigan are scheduled to close by 2032.[8]

Natural gas power stations

[edit]

Michigan has some of its own natural gas production and is a leading state for natural gas transport and storage. Declining prices for natural gas in the early 21st century led to an increase in the number of natural gas power plants. Consumers Energy announced a new 700 MW plant to be built near Flint beginning about 2015,[23] while the city of Holland replaced its coal plant with a 114 MW natural gas plant.[24] In April 2018, DTE received permission for a 1,100 MW natural gas plant to replace a coal plant in St. Clair.[25]

Wind power stations

[edit]

Wind power in Michigan has grown rapidly due to national price supports and a Michigan mandate to produce 10% renewable energy by 2015. The largest concentration of wind power is in the Thumb region.
