Year in Review

In this special year-in-review episode of Behind the Meter: an MPSC Podcast, host Mike Byrne is joined by all three Michigan Public Service Commissioners — Chair Dan Scripps, Commissioner Katherine Peretick, and Commissioner Shaquille Myers — to look back on the moments and milestones that defined the past year. Together, they count down the Top 5 topics of the year, including expanded public outreach and national leadership, strengthened customer protections, progress in managing Michigan’s energy transition, ongoing efforts to improve reliability, and the addition of Commissioner Shaquille Myers to the Commission. The conversation highlights how the MPSC has worked to protect consumers, modernize the grid, expand clean energy, and engage communities across the state — while positioning Michigan as a leader in energy policy nationwide. Whether you’ve followed the Commission closely or are just catching up, this episode offers a thoughtful reflection on the year behind us and a look ahead at what’s next for Michigan’s energy future. Resources:MPSC Website: https://www.michigan.gov/mpscACEEE (American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy): https://www.aceee.org/Reliability Metrics: https://www.michigan.gov/mpsc/consumer/electricity/distribution-system-reliability-metrics
