Michigan Business Beat
July 31, 2015 11:00 AM

Business SpotlightGarrick Rochow, Vice President of Customer Experience, Rates and Regulation and Quality of CMS Energy Corporation and Consumers Energy Company, in Jackson, Michigan, discusses with Chris how Consumers Energy is lowering electric costs for energy-intensive industries, thereby creating more job opportunities.

It may be counter-intuitive to have lower rates, but if businesses can grow and the economy grows, more electricity needs and opportunities come up. Changes are on the way by the end of this year, and you can hear about some of that here. Garrick also covers the great relationship they've developed with Pure Michigan Business Connect, a role that has led to a bigger commitment to Michigan businesses.

Michigan Business Beat, hosted by Chris Holman, discusses economic development, new or unusual entrepreneurial initiatives, and successful business practices from different regions and industries around Michigan with a wide range of entrepreneurs and business leaders.
