Frenchtown Charter Township
Cloverleaf Infrastructure has proposed a 200 acre data center called Project Cherry Blossom on the former ProMedica Hospital and golf course site near I-75 and North Dixie Highway in Frenchtown Charter Township, Monroe County. The company says it will use closed loop cooling and pay for any DTE Energy power upgrades the site requires. The township has weighed a moratorium while it studies the proposal further.

Power bills in Monroe 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. The case is still pending with no decision yet.
