Almost everyone who lives in Michigan’s most populous county, Wayne County, relies on DTE for electricity. Outages here lasted an average of 3.4 days. The average statewide is much lower, at 1.8 days, but Michigan doesn’t stack up well against other states. Only two other states, Louisiana and Maine, have more days without power.
