EES Coke Battery LLC

Rule Changes

Was required to submit a New Source Review permit application to Michigan regulators by November 1, 2026; no filing has been reported

A federal judge ordered DTE Energy and three subsidiaries to pay $100 million for sulfur dioxide pollution from the Zug Island coke plant, finding the parent companies liable as operators even though EES Coke Battery has no employees of its own. DTE appealed, and in July Judge Gershwin Drain refused to pause compliance while that appeal runs.
