Your rates are set by Great Lakes Energy Board of Directors
Michigan's electric cooperatives are member-regulated under 2008 PA 167. The MPSC does not set their retail rates, so there is no rate case to comment on. As a member you elect the board that does set them — a more direct lever, just a different one.
What you can do
There is no public rate docket to comment on. Rate decisions happen at Great Lakes Energy Board of Directors, whose meetings are where a rate concern belongs, and whose members you elect.
