•Broke ground on region’s largest battery energy storage facility
•Helped make NFL Draft a carbon-neutral success

•Honored with Civic 50 award for being among the 50 most community-minded companies in the United States
DETROIT, July 25, 2024 — DTE Energy (NYSE:DTE) invested over $2 billion in the first half of 2024, on pace for a full year investment of over $4 billion, to make its electric and natural gas infrastructure more resilient to extreme weather and to generate cleaner energy for the communities it serves. DTE is progressing on building a smarter and stronger electric grid, upgrading natural gas infrastructure to be even safer and more reliable, and transforming the way the company generates power to deliver cleaner energy to its customers.
The company also reported second quarter earnings of $322 million or $1.55 per diluted share, compared with $201 million, or $0.97 per diluted share in 2023. Operating earnings for the second quarter 2024 were $296 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, compared with 2023 operating earnings of $206 million, or $0.99 per diluted share. Operating earnings exclude non-recurring items, certain mark-to-market adjustments and discontinued operations. Reconciliations of reported earnings to operating earnings are included at the end of this news release.
“We are taking bold steps to significantly improve the resiliency and reliability of our electric grid and accelerate our clean energy journey for our customers,” said Jerry Norcia, DTE Energy chairman and CEO. “Our continued investment in the modernization of our system is already producing results, as well as creating jobs and growing Michigan’s economy. Our strong financial health and constructive regulatory environment support significant investments we are making for our customers, allowing us to invest above our generated cash flows to further improve reliability and transition to cleaner generation.”
Norcia noted the following accomplishments in the second quarter:
•Committed to improving electric reliability for customers: DTE continues to invest in building the electric grid of the future that will reduce power outages by 30% and cut outage duration in half over the next 5 years by transitioning to a smarter grid, updating existing infrastructure, rebuilding significant portions of the grid and trimming trees.
•Broke ground on region’s largest battery energy storage facility: DTE was joined by Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Congresswoman Debbie Dingell and other officials and community leaders to announce the Trenton Channel Energy Center, a facility that will store 880 megawatt hours of electricity, enough to power

nearly 40,000 homes. This project will reduce strain on the grid, decrease the need to start and stop generation as demand fluctuates, and augment DTE’s growing wind and solar resources – all of which benefit customers.
•Helped make NFL Draft a carbon-neutral success: DTE worked with the National Football League (NFL) and local tourism non-profit Visit Detroit to help the 2024 NFL Draft become carbon neutral. The NFL leveraged DTE’s popular voluntary renewable energy programs, MIGreenPower and Natural Gas Balance, to create a more sustainable environment for the hundreds of thousands of visitors who came to Detroit, with a positive impact for the local community.
•Grew Energy Efficiency Academy in Detroit and expanded to Grand Rapids: Building on the success of the Academy’s first year, DTE expanded its Energy Efficiency Academy with larger cohorts in Detroit and new, advanced training in Grand Rapids for participants interested in working in the clean energy industry. DTE originally designed the program to respond to the growing demand for energy-efficient home repairs in Detroit, while also equipping area residents with skills and opportunities for higher-paying jobs.
•Honored with Civic 50 award: For the seventh consecutive year, Points of Light recognized DTE as one of the Top 50 Most Community-Minded Companies in the United States through the organization’s Civic 50 Award. This award is only made possible through DTE team members’ dedication, the company’s longstanding partnerships and support from the communities DTE serves.
Outlook for 2024
DTE Energy confirms 2024 operating EPS guidance of $6.54 - $6.83.
“DTE's solid financial performance allows us to keep investing to improve how we produce and deliver energy for our customers," said David Ruud, DTE executive vice president and CFO. "By finding many local and diverse suppliers to partner with DTE to execute these investments, we’re also helping to grow economies in the communities we serve throughout Michigan."

Use of Operating Earnings Information - DTE Energy management believes that operating earnings provide a meaningful representation of the company’s earnings from ongoing operations and uses operating earnings as the primary performance measurement for external communications with analysts and investors. Internally, DTE Energy uses operating earnings to measure performance against budget and to report to the Board of Directors. Operating earnings is a non-GAAP measure and should be viewed as a supplement and not a substitute for reported earnings, which represents the company’s net income and the most comparable GAAP measure. In this release, DTE Energy discusses 2024 operating earnings guidance. It is likely that certain items that impact the company's 2024 reported results will be excluded from operating results. Reconciliations to the comparable 2024 reported earnings guidance are not provided because it is not possible to provide a reliable forecast of specific line items (i.e. future non-recurring items, certain mark-to-market adjustments and discontinued operations).
