Dte Energy ranks #92 of 4,988 slug-merged TRI parents by disclosed release pounds, mid-to-upper among parents, not a top-25 volume name. Dte Energy's TRI Form R footprint is concentrated in a single state (Michigan), so statewide context matters more than a multi-state portfolio read. This parent maps to a single reporting facility (Dte Electric Co - Monroe Power Plant), so the company total and that site's Form R are the same disclosure.
Parent aggregation for Dte Energy follows facility-reported names. Compare the named neighbors (Cleveland-Cliffs Inc; US Ecology Inc; Dte Energy Co) before treating rank as a hazard score; TRI stays self-reported and unweighted by toxicity.
