Exhibit 99.1
DTE Energy reports third quarter 2024 accomplishments, earnings and investments in improving energy infrastructure
•Continued on path to improving electric reliability through investments in smart grid technology and new substations
•Began construction of three new solar parks, all funded by company’s voluntary MIGreenPower program
•Installed nearly 1,000 free air conditioners for people in need in metro Detroit
•Published 2023 CleanVision Sustainability Report
•Recognized for initiatives in making DTE a great place to work
DETROIT, Oct. 24, 2024 — DTE Energy (NYSE:DTE) invested over $3 billion so far this year and is on track to invest over $4 billion in 2024 to continue building the electric grid of the future, transforming its power generation to deliver cleaner sources of energy, and upgrading and expanding its natural gas infrastructure to be safer and more reliable.
The company also reported third quarter earnings of $477 million or $2.30 per diluted share, compared with $332 million, or $1.61 per diluted share in 2023. Operating earnings for the third quarter 2024 were $460 million, or $2.22 per diluted share, compared with 2023 operating earnings of $298 million, or $1.44 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.
“Through their innovation and hard work, DTE team members are making great progress building a cleaner, more resilient energy grid to keep the power flowing for our customers,” said Jerry Norcia, DTE Energy chairman and CEO. “In the third quarter of 2024 alone, we started construction of three new solar energy parks. We are also building or energizing 10 new substations to power Michigan’s future. Our solid financial strength and constructive regulatory environment allow us to continue to invest above our generated cash flows for improved reliability and cleaner generation.”
Norcia noted the following accomplishments in the third quarter:
•Continued on path to improving electric reliability through investments in smart grid technology and new substations. DTE’s investment in smart grid technology prevented more than 9,000 power interruptions and more than 3.6 million minutes without power for customers so far in 2024. Smart grid technology automatically detects and de-energizes downed wires, which improves people’s safety, and helps isolate areas of damage, reroute power for many customers and quickly pinpoint the damage location, which shortens outage time and speeds up restoration. The company is also at various stages of constructing or energizing 10 new substations across its service territory. Substations, also equipped with smart grid technology, are critical parts of the electric grid that adjust voltage levels coming from power plants to distribute electricity safely and efficiently to homes and businesses.
•Began construction of three new solar parks, all funded by company’s voluntary MIGreenPower program: As Michigan’s largest producer of and investor in renewable energy, DTE broke ground on three new solar parks in response to growing customer support for clean, renewable energy. The Fish Creek and Mission Road solar parks in mid-Michigan, and the Little Trout solar park in northern Michigan, are all funded by customers who voluntarily enrolled in DTE’s industry-leading CleanVision MIGreenPower program. These solar developments are another step toward the company’s goal of achieving net zero carbon emissions and bringing the State of Michigan significantly closer to its clean energy goal of 60% by 2035.
•Installed nearly 1,000 free air conditioners for people in need in metro Detroit: As summer temperatures rose, DTE’s Energy Efficiency Assistance (EEA) team delivered free AC units and made home repairs for local income-qualified customers as part of an ongoing effort to support vulnerable populations. As a part of the initiative, customers may also receive additional assistance including weatherization, new appliances and insulation to ensure their homes meet health and safety standards.
•Published 2023 CleanVision Sustainability Report: DTE shared its progress in executing its sustainability strategy to improve operations, accomplish net zero goals, care for customers – especially the most vulnerable – and develop a workforce to lead Michigan’s energy future in its 2023 CleanVision Sustainability Report.
•Recognized for initiatives in making DTE a great place to work:
◦For the second consecutive year, The Health Project recognized DTE’s use of evidence-based programs for employee wellness to achieve meaningful results. More than 85% of DTE employees participate in the company’s programs, which improve their lives by reducing critical lifestyle-related health conditions and workplace injuries.
◦Disability:In, the leading nonprofit resource for business disability inclusion worldwide, named DTE one of the Best Companies for Disability Inclusion, awarding the company with a top score of 100 on the Disability Equality Index for creating an accessible and inclusive environment where all employees can feel a sense of belonging and thrive.
◦DTE’s employee resource group for veterans and their allies received the 2024 Michigan Veteran Affairs Agency Employer Innovator Award for its proactive recruitment and onboarding programs and for collaborating with other organizations to improve veterans’ lives.
Outlook for 2024
DTE Energy confirms 2024 operating EPS guidance of $6.54 - $6.83.
“We are confident that we will achieve our financial targets in 2024 while making significant strides in our infrastructure investment plan to improve how we produce and deliver energy for our customers and communities,” said David Ruud, DTE executive vice president and CFO.

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). 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.

3Q 2023 and 3Q 2024 reconciliation of reported to operating earnings (non- GAAP) and operating EPS (non-GAAP) 18 Adjustments key A) Certain adjustments resulting from derivatives being marked-to-market without revaluing the underlying non-derivative contracts and assets — recorded in Operating Expenses — Fuel, purchased power, gas, and other — non-utility 1. Excluding tax related adjustments, the amount of income taxes was calculated based on a combined federal and state income tax rate, considering the applicable jurisdictions of the respective segments and deductibility of specific operating adjustments 2. Per share amounts are divided by Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding – Diluted, as noted on the Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) (Earnings per share2)
Reconciliation of reported to operating earnings (non-GAAP) 19 Use of Operating Earnings Information – Operating earnings exclude non-recurring items, certain mark-to-market adjustments and discontinued operations. 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 presentation, DTE Energy provides guidance for future period operating earnings. It is likely that certain items that impact the company’s future period reported results will be excluded from operating results. A reconciliation to the comparable future period reported earnings is 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. Definition of net zero Goal for DTE Energy's utility operations and gas suppliers at DTE Gas that any carbon emissions put into the atmosphere will be balanced by those taken out of the atmosphere. Achieving this goal will include collective efforts to reduce carbon emissions and actions to offset any remaining emissions. Progress towards net zero goals is estimated and methodologies and calculations may vary from those of other utility businesses with similar targets. Carbon emissions is defined as emissions of carbon containing compounds, including carbon dioxide and methane, that are identified as greenhouse gases.
