Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

DTE Energy Company (“DTE Energy”) will meet with investors at the Barclays Energy Conference on September 9-10, 2015. A copy of the slide presentation from the meetings is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and will be available on DTE Energy's website, www.dteenergy.com on September 9, 2015.

DTE Energy Sr. Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Peter B. Oleksiak will provide a business update at the conference at 7:45 a.m. EDT September 10, 2015. The presentation audio will be available via webcast through a link on DTE Energy's website. The webcast replay will be available and archived on the website. In the meetings and in the slide presentation, DTE Energy reaffirms its 2015 operating earnings per share guidance of $4.54-$4.90 per share.

In its slide presentation and this filing, DTE Energy discusses 2015 operating earnings guidance. It is likely that certain items that impact the company's 2015 reported results will be excluded from operating results. Reconciliations to the comparable 2015 reported earnings guidance are not provided because it is not possible to provide a reliable forecast of specific line items. These items may fluctuate significantly from period to period and may have a significant impact on reported earnings.

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth in such a filing.
