Dependable Michigan Assets

Wolverine owns and operates 7 natural gas power plants throughout Michigan

These peaking plants kick in when electric demand is high. Historically their purpose was to assist baseload resources during extreme weather conditions. Today they also support renewable energy when the sun isn’t shining or wind isn’t blowing. Our generation fleet proudly holds the distinction of being the most reliable within the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) footprint.
