LG Energy Solution Vertech, the U.S. energy storage division of LG Energy Solution, will deliver 1.5 GW/6 GWh of battery energy storage systems to DTE Energy over a two-year period.

The projects will use battery cells manufactured in Michigan and at other facilities in the United States and Canada. The companies said all eight projects will meet domestic content requirements.

The systems are designed to store power when generation exceeds demand and discharge electricity during peak demand periods, helping DTE reduce grid strain and improve reliability.

The deal comes as utilities across the United States are expanding battery storage to manage rising electricity demand, renewable generation, and grid volatility. In Michigan, DTE is also preparing for new load growth from data centers, including Oracle’s planned data center in Saline Township.

DTE said the battery systems funded through the Oracle contract would be sufficient on their own to meet the utility’s share of Michigan’s 2030 clean energy standard for battery storage.

The agreement also reinforces Michigan’s role in the North American battery supply chain, with LG Energy Solution tying the storage rollout to domestic manufacturing and job creation.
