DETROIT, Feb. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ending a year focused on delivering cleaner energy, excellent customer service and a rewarding workplace experience, DTE Energy (NYSE:DTE) today reported 2022 earnings for the year of $1.1 billion, or $5.52 per diluted share, compared with $907 million, or $4.67 per diluted share in 2021.

2022 operating earnings for the year were $1.2 billion, or $6.10 per diluted share, compared with 2021 operating earnings of $1.2 billion, or $5.99 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.

“This year we accelerated our clean energy journey, improved our infrastructure and continued to provide a diverse and engaging workplace,” Jerry Norcia, DTE Energy chairman, president, and CEO, said. “We are well-positioned to continue building a brighter future for our customers, communities and our employees in 2023.”

Norcia noted the following accomplishments:

  • Released Integrated Resource Plan, accelerating carbon reductions from energy generation: Unveiled the CleanVision plan, a 20-year proposal that accelerates its carbon reduction goals while supporting a grid that is reliable, affordable and built for the needs of the future. This includes a $9 billion investment over 10 years, supporting Michigan jobs while reducing emissions and improving infrastructure.
  • Reduced electric power interruptions: Investment of more than $1 billion in the electric grid resulted in 21% fewer power interruptions across its service territory in 2022 compared to 2021.
  • Achieved significant growth of voluntary renewable energy program: Corporate leaders Ford and Stellantis together will add more than 1,000 megawatts of renewable energy to their automotive operations by partnering with MIGreenPower, marking two of the largest renewable energy purchases ever made in the U.S. from a utility. Coupled with 85,000 residential enrollees, the MIGreenPower program, where customers can attribute up to 100% of electricity usage to renewable energy, is on pace to avoid as many as three million tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually, helping create a cleaner future for all.
  • Retired coal plants bringing DTE closer to a carbon-free future: Closure of the Trenton Channel and St. Clair coal plants was a milestone in DTE’s efforts to reach net zero carbon emissions, with nearly one-third of electricity generated by the electric company now coming from carbon-free sources.
  • Placed Blue Water Energy Center into commercial operation: Completed on time and on budget, the natural gas-powered plant provides cleaner, reliable, affordable electricity for 850,000 homes and is a significant step in reducing carbon emissions. The powerplant generates electricity 24/7, supporting the expansion of renewable energy.
  • Led the region in gas customer satisfaction: Proving for the third consecutive year that DTE’s method of buying natural gas when prices are at their lowest and selling it to our customers at cost is the best way to do business, J.D. Power named DTE the leader in price satisfaction for the Midwest in their Gas Utility Residential Customer Satisfaction Study.
  • Earned numerous honors as a great place to work including:
    • Gallup Great Workplace for 10th consecutive year placing DTE in the top 4% of companies globally
    • Top 10 Michigan-based companies included in Forbes' 2022 America’s Best Employer rankings
    • Forbes’ Top 200 nationally for Best Employers for Women
    • Best Corporation for Women’s Business Enterprises by the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council
    • Best Employers Excellence and Health and Well-Being award from the Business Group on Health
  • Ranked as one of the country's top corporate citizens by Points of Light: Marking the fifth consecutive year earning this high distinction, DTE was named to the Civic 50 – the Top 50 companies nationwide in corporate citizenship – by Points of Light, the world's largest organization dedicated to volunteer service. DTE was also recognized as the leading utility sector company nationally.
  • Earned 2022 Energy Star Excellence in Energy Efficiency award: This award is the highest level of Environmental Protection Agency recognition, honoring corporate energy management programs that demonstrate organization-wide savings, best practices and the benefits of ENERGY STAR.
  • Attracted new business with Our Next Energy Inc. (ONE): With pioneering technology, U.S.-based ONE announced new battery operations will be located in Van Buren Township, Michigan bringing 2,000 jobs to the area. Attracted in part by DTE’s large industrial electric rate, ONE will bring high-capacity battery storage systems that will connect to the electric grid. As an EV battery supplier, ONE will continue to drive Michigan’s leadership in zero-emission vehicles.
  • Supported job creation with Michigan businesses: Invested $2.5 billion in 2022 with Michigan businesses, creating and sustaining more than 11,000 jobs across the state. The company has invested nearly $18 billion with Michigan-based vendors since 2010, creating and sustaining 65,000 Michigan jobs.
  • Launched the Detroit Tree Equity Partnership (DTEP): Spearheaded a joint effort by the City of Detroit, American Forests, the Erb Foundation and the White House in the Detroit Tree Equity Partnership. The DTEP is an ambitious program that aims to equitably build Detroit’s tree canopy through the targeted planting of tens of thousands of trees over the next five years, cooling urban heat zones while providing beauty and improved air quality. The program also will hire and train hundreds of Detroiters to plant and maintain the trees.

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 2023 operating earnings guidance. It is likely that certain items that impact the company's 2023 reported results will be excluded from operating results. Reconciliations to the comparable 2023 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). These items may fluctuate significantly from period to period and may have a significant impact on reported earnings.

The information contained herein is as of the date of this document. DTE Energy expressly disclaims any current intention to update any contained in this document as a result of new information or future events or developments.

Words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “could,” “projected,” “aspiration,” “plans” and “goals” signify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and conditions but rather are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause actual future results to be materially different from those contemplated, projected, estimated, or budgeted.
