The Michigan Public Service Commission’s Winter Energy Appraisal for 2023-2024 projects demand for electricity will decline slightly while demand for natural gas will increase, mainly because of increased use of the fuel in electricity generation.
The annual report released today projects electricity demand will decline 2.7% overall, with residential demand declining 5.7% and commercial demand falling 2.5%, while industrial demand increases 0.9%. Consumption of natural gas is projected to increase 7.6%, due to increased use of gas in electrical generation, outweighing expected declines in the residential (-5.4%), commercial (-4.3%) and industrial (-1.6%) sectors.
While household electric use is expected to decline, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) forecasts that average electricity prices in the east north central part of the country, which includes Michigan, will increase to 16.09 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh), up 3.9% from 2022. For n ....
After making a commitment over a year ago, the decision has now been put pen-to-paper for the future Chippewa. Senior pitching standout Max Hammond signed his official national letter of intent Tuesday to attend Central Michigan University next fall.
“It feels great now that it’s official,” Hammond said. “I’m super excited to get down there and get to work.”
The senior multi-sport standout has a stellar baseball resume, including two All-CSAA first team awards, Pioneer Dream Team Player of the Year in 2022, and a division 3 MHSBCA All-State 1st team selection this past spring. Reed City’s ace struck out 146 batters with a 0.733 ERA through over 57 innings of work in 2023.
Not only was Hammond a dominant arm on the mound, but he also contributed greatly with his bat. In his junior season, Hammond hit for a .440 batting average as well as five home runs, 38 RBIs, and an OPS of 1.152.
Wednesday afternoon in front of her coaches, teammates, friends, and family, three-sport standout Marissa Warren made her choice of collegiate destination.
The 2023 all-state selection signed her letter of intent to attend the University of Toledo and play softball for the Rockets. When asked why she chose Toledo, it was the fit with her intended major of exercise science and the program’s style of softball.
“For me, it was ultimately the coaching staff,” Warren said. “Coach (Bracamonte) is changing the environment there and bringing a better culture. I love what she is trying to do and I think her coaching style really fits with my personal style.”
Warren helped lead Big Rapids to three straight district titles and back to back conference championships during her three years starting on varsity. She also collected 1st team All-Conference and Pioneer Dream Team honors individaully all three years.

Chris Schwartzkopf says most of the people in his family worked in the business world, but he wanted to go in another direction.
“There was a time when I was considering a career in engineering, which would have been in line with our tradition of taking roles in corporate life,” he said. “It came down to the realization I wanted to work outside a business and office setting, in a career that would allow me to help other people and keep our community safe.”
Schwartzkopf, now a St. Clair County Sheriff’s detective, forged a career in law enforcement in eastern Lower Michigan, which started decades ago at Ferris State University by recognizing and pursuing his passions.
Schwartzkopf completed studies in Ferris State’s Law Enforcement Academy, in 1989 and joined the police department in the village of Capac, in western St. Clair County. Then, he met Steven Amey, the director of Ferris State’s LEA program.
