In Macomb County
Prologis proposed a 312 acre data center and technical campus on the south side of 32 Mile Road, between M-53 and Powell Road, in Washington Township, Macomb County. After months of resident pushback at packed zoning meetings, Prologis withdrew its application on May 19, 2026, saying it would wait for the township to finish writing data center rules first. The township board then passed a six month moratorium on new data center applications.

Power bills in Macomb County
Most of the county is served by DTE Electric.
DTE Electric is asking the commission for a 9.7% residential increase (2027 electric rate case (docket U-22046)). On a $160 monthly bill that is about $13 to $18 a month. 2026 electric distribution rate case (docket U-21860) raised residential rates 4.1% from March 2026: about $6 to $8 a month on a $160 bill. The order is meant to keep this one data center's power costs off the bills of regular DTE residential customers, but critics argue the fast, largely ex parte approval process did not fully test that promise.
DTE Electric filed a new rate case in 2026 asking for a 474.3 million dollar increase, about 9.7 percent more from residential customers, for a period starting March 2027. DTE separately offered to pause future rate hike requests for two years if this case gets a constructive outcome and its Saline Township data center opens on time, an offer Attorney General Dana Nessel called a ransom note that ties ordinary ratepayer relief to data center approvals. On August 28, 2026 Nessel filed testimony recommending the commission cut the increase to about 134.5 million dollars, roughly 2 percent, and require data centers to be billed as a separate rate class that covers their own added grid costs; the case remains pending with no decision yet.
