Like many utilities across the US, Michigan-based Consumers Energy is navigating significant change.

In 2019, for example, 20% of the company’s generation portfolio was coal. By 2025, Consumers Energy will close all its coal plants, 15 years ahead of the utility’s original closure schedule.

The aggressive move away from coal is part of Consumers Energy’s ambitious Clean Energy Plan. Besides becoming one of the first utilities in the nation to go coal-free, the 20-year blueprint lays out a strategy for the utility to achieve its goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2040. It is also investing heavily in renewable energy and aims to have clean energy make up 90% of its generation portfolio by 2040, including around 8,000 megawatts of solar.
