Throughout 2024, Attorney General Dana Nessel took action to safeguard Michigan consumers by intervening in multiple utility rate cases. Her office scrutinized utility proposals to raise rates, challenged unjustified operational expenses, and exposed corporate efforts to increase profits at the expense of ratepayers. In several cases, Nessel negotiated lower rate increases or outright denials of certain expenses, resulting in significant savings for households across the state.
Her efforts led to substantial savings for ratepayers, highlighting the importance of preventing unjustified rate hikes. Nessel’s advocacy exposed attempts by utility companies to pass excessive operational costs onto consumers and demanded increased transparency regarding utility profits.
