All State Fastener joined DTE Energy’s MIGreenPower.  Customers attribute more of their energy use to renewable energy from the company’s wind and solar parks. ASF enrolled at 25% with plans to attribute 100% of its electricity use to renewable energy.

ASF’s current MIGreenPower commitment has the environmental equivalent to avoiding the greenhouse gas emissions from driving a passenger car 204,822 miles each year, according to DTE.

In addition to enrolling in MIGreenPower, ASF is implementing energy efficiency measures to save 30% to 50% of total energy use. ASF has reduced minimized paper and is using electric forklifts instead of gas.

“As a family business, an American company headquartered in Michigan and a global supplier, we are committed to protecting the environment both here at home and abroad,”  president Tony Giorgio said. “As the automotive industry continues to innovate, we want to contribute to the industry’s efforts to green its supply chain. DTE’s MIGreenPower program is helping us reduce our impact on the environment and meet our sustainability targets and those of our customers.”

ASF joins 35 industrial, 460 business and 50,000 residential DTE Electric customers in supporting new wind and solar projects in Michigan. In 2021, DTE increased its renewable energy generation by 40%, adding three new wind parks and one new solar park to source clean energy.

Brian Calka, director of Renewable Solutions for DTE Energy said “every enrollment is bringing more renewable energy to the grid, reducing carbon emissions and creating a cleaner Michigan for everyone.”

DTE has 50 wind and solar parks generating enough clean energy to power 700,000 homes. By 2025 DTE will invest another $3 billion in renewable energy infrastructure and double its clean energy generation. DTE is committed to net zero carbon emissions by 2050. Web:  MIgreenPower.com
