Michael J. Walsh filed direct testimony for the City of Ann Arbor on March 13, 2026, in Michigan Public Service Commission Case U-21973, DTE Gas Company’s rate proceeding.

The testimony examines DTE’s investment plans and customer costs as gas demand changes, methane measurement, renewable natural gas, non-pipeline alternatives, and line extension allowances. It recommends changes to new-connection subsidies, systematic evaluation of alternatives, and a broader Future of Gas proceeding.
