“Serving in the Coast Guard as a young man gave me the foundation upon which my character was built. Respecting others, working as a team and taking great pride in accomplishing what we set out to do are skills I continue to incorporate into my daily life as well as my career at DTE. I will forever be Semper Paratus.”- Craig W., DTE Maintenance Journeyman Electrician and U.S. Coast Guard veteran Learn the history behind the U.S. Coast Guard’s official motto, Semper Paratus, which means “always ready”: http://spr.ly/6044ejwCw

On Wednesday, we were thrilled to celebrate breaking ground on our Fish Creek Solar Park in Bushnell and Evergreen Townships. We were joined by local officials, participating landowners, and of course, our team members and contractors who have been working diligently on this project since its conception. Once operational, Fish Creek Solar will have nearly 320,000 solar panels generating enough clean energy to power approximately 30,000 homes on an ongoing basis.

It’s why I believe that DTE feels like home to me because I apply those same values to my everyday work, which in in service to our customers and communities.”- Charles F., supervisor, DTE Organizational Strategy and U.S. Army Reserves veteran.

“A proud moment from my military career recalls Hurricane Hugo relief efforts while serving aboard U.S.S. Stephen W. Groves. As the leading communications electronics technician, my team spent days troubleshooting the island’s only public radio station and repurposing old police radios to repair the station’s damaged transmitter, which resulted in vital safety information being broadcast to island residents. Today, as a DTE team member, I’m proud to have designed, built and installed several handicapped ramps for disabled Michigan veterans through our VETS employee resource group.”- Matt G., manager, DTE Gas Operations and U.S. Navy veteran #MIlitaryAppreciationMonth Learn more about the U.S.S.

When the Road to Restoration partnership launched three years ago, we all hoped to address a barrier that impacts at least 5% of Michiganders. Fast forward to our 40th license restoration clinic held last week in Battle Creek, which offered volunteer attorneys and Michigan Department of State teams to guide attendees in restoring their driving privileges and regaining their independence. Hear from one clinic participant who was able to leave with their driving license in hand after being without it for twenty-five years. Michigan Department of State http://spr.ly/6040dY2is
