General Motors Partners With DTE on Wind Energy in Michigan

As part of its commitment to increasing its renewable energy footprint globally and finding clean energy solutions near its operations, General Motors has partnered with DTE Energy for 300,000 megawatt hours (MWh) of wind energy in the state of Michigan.

The 300,000 MWh are equivalent to the amount of power consumed by nearly 30,000 U.S. households per year.

From the earliest days of production, the cast and crew dedicated themselves to reducing waste, recycling used materials, prioritizing responsible food service, and embracing renewable energy. These efforts helped the project divert more than 82% of its waste from landfill and generate significant cost and carbon savings in the process.
