Detroit Edison Company Savings & Stock Ownership Plan for Employees Represented by
Local 17 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers
Detroit, Michigan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Detroit
Edison Savings & Stock Ownership Plan for Employees Represented by Local 17 of the International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (the Plan) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related
statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the aforementioned financial statements present fairly, in all material respects,
the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the changes
in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As
discussed in Note 3, effective January 1, 2008, the Plan has adopted the fair value measurement
and disclosure provisions contained in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
157, Fair Value Measurements, and SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements
taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held for investment purposes as of December
31, 2008 is presented for purposes of complying with the Department of Labors Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
as amended, and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. This schedule has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

Detroit Edison Company Savings & Stock Ownership Plan
For Employees Represented by Local 17 of the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers
Notes to Financial Statements
NOTE 1 PLAN DESCRIPTION
The following description of the Detroit Edison Company Savings & Stock Ownership Plan for
Employees Represented by Local 17 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (Plan)
provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more
complete description of the Plans provisions.
General
The Plan is a voluntary, defined contribution plan. Regular full-time and part-time employees of
Detroit Edison Company (Company), and DTE Energy Corporate Services, LLC represented by Local 17 of
the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers are eligible to participate in the Plan as soon
as administratively practicable upon hire (Participant). The Plan is subject to the provisions of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).
DTE Energy
Corporate Services, LLC, as the Plan sponsor, has delegated
responsibility for the investment aspects of the Plan to the
Investment Committee and for the administration of the Plan to the
Benefit Plan Administration Committee (BPAC).
Brokerage fees, transfer taxes and other expenses incidental to the purchase or sale of securities
are paid from Plan assets. Investment management fees are paid from Plan assets. These expenses
are reflected as a reduction in the fair value of the Funds.
Contributions
A Participant may contribute to the Plan on a pre-tax (Tax Deferred Contributions), post-tax
(Employee Contributions) and, if applicable, a catch-up contribution basis (Catch-Up
Contributions). Participants age 50 or older are eligible to make pre-tax Catch-Up Contributions
in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, Section 414(v) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (IRC). Participants may contribute up to 100 percent of eligible compensation
(as defined in the Plan) on a combined Tax Deferred Contributions, Employee Contributions, and
Catch-Up Contributions (if applicable) basis, after required withholdings and voluntary payroll
deductions. Tax Deferred Contributions, Employee Contributions and Catch-Up Contributions are
automatically adjusted downward if the full deferral amount elected cannot be taken. Participants
may also directly roll over into the Plan distributions of certain assets from a tax-qualified plan
of a prior employer, including Roth 401(k) Rollover, beginning May 1, 2008 (Direct Rollover
Contributions).
Effective May 1, 2008, Participants are able to make Roth 401(k) Contributions and Roth 401(k)
Catch-Up Contributions. These contributions must be aggregated with a Participants Tax Deferred
Contributions and Catch-Up Contributions, respectively, when applying the IRC limit on the amount
of pre-tax and Catch-Up contributions that are permitted for a year.
The IRC limits the amount of Tax Deferred Contributions, Roth 401(k) Contributions, Catch-Up
Contributions, and Roth 401(k) Catch-Up Contributions which may be contributed to the Plan
annually. These amounts are
indexed for inflation annually. In the event a Participants Tax Deferred Contributions reach the
maximum amount
4
Detroit Edison Company Savings & Stock Ownership Plan
For Employees Represented by Local 17 of the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers
Notes to Financial Statements
permitted by the IRC, further contributions for the remainder of the Plan year,
which is a calendar year, will automatically be deemed to be Employee Contributions. If a
Participants total annual additions (Employee Contributions, Tax Deferred Contributions, Roth
401(k) Contributions and Company Contributions) reach the IRC limit for the Plan year, the
Participants contributions will be stopped or refunded, as applicable.
After a Participant completes six months of service, the Company contributes 75 percent for the
first 4 percent of Employee Contributions and Tax Deferred Contributions and 50 percent of Employee
Contributions and Tax Deferred Contributions for the next 4 percent. There are no Company
Contributions for Employee Contributions and Tax Deferred Contributions, which in the aggregate
exceed 8 percent of basic compensation. Catch-Up Contributions, Roth 401(k) Contributions and
Roth 401(k) Catch-Up Contributions are not eligible for Company Contributions.
While the Company has made its contributions to the Trustee with respect to a Plan year on a
current basis, the Plan permits the Company to make Company Contributions for a Plan year no later
than the due date (including extensions of time) for filing DTE Energy Companys consolidated
federal income tax return for such year. Employee contributions and Tax Deferred Contributions are
paid to the Plan when amounts can be reasonably segregated. The Company expects to continue to
make Plan contributions on a current basis.
Participant Accounts
Each Participants account is credited with the Participants contributions, including eligible
rollover contributions, allocations of the Company Contributions and Plan earnings. Allocations
are based on Participant earnings or account balances, as defined. Forfeited balances of
terminated Participants nonvested accounts are used to reduce future Company Contributions. The
benefit to which a Participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the
Participants vested account.
Vesting
A Participant vests in all Company Contributions on a graded five-year schedule (for Participants
hired before December 1, 2005) or a graded six-year schedule (for Participants hired on or after
December 1, 2005), with Participants being 20 percent vested after completing two years of service.
In addition, a Participant will have a fully vested interest in Company Contributions upon (a)
attainment of age 65, (b) termination due to total disability, if entitled to benefits under the
Companys Long Term Disability Benefits Plan, or (c) death.
Employee Contributions, Tax Deferred Contributions, Roth 401(k) Contributions, Catch-Up
Contributions, Roth 401(k) Catch-Up Contributions and Direct Rollover Contributions are fully
vested at all times.

Notes to Financial Statements
Investment Options
Participants may elect to have their Employee Contributions, Tax Deferred Contributions, Roth
401(k) Contributions, Catch-Up Contributions, Roth 401(k) Catch-Up Contributions and Direct
Rollover Contributions invested entirely in any one of the investment funds or in any combination
of the investment funds. Company Contributions are made 100 percent in DTE Energy common stock. Prior to January 1, 2008,
the stock was restricted and could not be redirected to another investment fund in the Plan until
after one full calendar year following the year in which the contribution was made. Effective
January 1, 2008, the restrictions to keep Company Contributions in the DTE Energy Stock fund for
one full calendar year following the year in which the contribution was made were lifted and these
amounts may be redirected to another investment at any time.
The entire DTE Energy Stock Fund is considered to be the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
portion of the Plan. Quarterly dividends from DTE Energy common stock are automatically reinvested
in DTE Energy common stock. DTE Energy common stock dividends accumulated under the ESOP in a
Participants account may be paid out in cash to the Participant (at the Participants election)
within 90 days of the end of the previous Plan year. Effective April 1, 2009, stock dividends will
be paid out on a quarterly basis for Participants electing to receive cash dividends.
The DTE Energy Stock Fund also contains participant-directed investments. The changes in the
participant-directed and nonparticipant-directed portions of the DTE Energy Stock Fund are not
separately disclosed in Note 6.
Contributions received by the Trustee for the DTE Energy Stock Fund are invested in DTE Energy
common stock. The Trustee currently purchases and sells shares of DTE Energy common stock in open
market transactions at prevailing market prices. However, the Trustee may purchase or sell DTE
Energy common stock from or to DTE Energy if the purchase or sale price is for adequate
consideration. Brokerage commissions are charged against the DTE Energy Stock Fund.
A Participants interest in the DTE Energy Stock Fund is measured by share trading. A share-traded
investment is traded and valued on a share basis.
Transfers
Net transfers represent Participants transferring between different plans of the affiliated group
due to a change in employment status.
Administrative and Brokerage Fees
Expenses in connection with the purchase or sale of stock or other securities are charged to the
Participant for whom the purchases or sales are made. Participants pay 100 percent of the
investment management and other related expenses of the funds. The Trustee and the Company pay all
costs of administering the Plan.

Notes to Financial Statements
Forfeited Accounts
During 2008 approximately $2,000 of forfeited nonvested accounts were used to reduce Company
contributions. During 2007 there were no forfeited nonvested amounts.
Distributions, Withdrawals and Loans
Distributions of Tax Deferred Contributions will be made only upon retirement or disability, as
defined under the Plan, termination of employment, death, attainment of age 591/2, or hardship. A
hardship distribution of Tax Deferred Contributions (and generally not the earnings thereon) is
permitted only for (a) medical expenses for the Participant, his or her spouse, children or
dependents, (b) tuition expenses for the Participant, his or her spouse, children or dependents,
(c) expenditures to purchase a principal residence, (d) payments to prevent eviction or foreclosure
on a principal residence, (e) payment of funeral expenses for the Participants deceased parent,
spouse, child or dependents, or (f) payment of expenses for the repair of damage to the
Participants principal residence due to casualty loss.
Participants may borrow funds from their accounts attributable to Employee Contributions, Tax
Deferred Contributions, Catch-up Contributions, Direct Rollover Contributions, Roth 401(k)
Contributions and Roth 401(k) Catch-Up Contributions no more frequently than once during any
calendar year. The number of loans outstanding at one time is limited to two, only one of which
can be a principal residence loan. Prior to 2006, a Participant could have up to five loans
outstanding at one time. A Participant who had more than two loans outstanding as of January 1,
2006 will not be eligible to establish a new loan until the number of outstanding loans is reduced
to less than two.
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts subject to certain terms and conditions, for a
period of five years for a general purpose loan, and 25 years for principal residence loans, and
beginning in 2006, at a fixed rate equal to the prime rate of interest plus 1 percent, updated
monthly, at a minimum of $1,000 up to the lesser of:
|
|
|
$50,000 reduced by (a) the highest outstanding balance of loans from the Plan during the
one-year period ending on the day before the loan was made, over (b) the outstanding
balance of loans from the Plan on the date the loan is made, or |
|
|
|
|
50 percent of the Participants Account at the time the loan is made. |
Proceeds for any loan are obtained through the pro rata liquidation of the Participants account,
then transferred to the Participants loan account and thereupon paid in cash to the Participant by
the Trustee. Loan repayments of principal and interest are invested as received according to the
Participants current investment direction. Prepayment of loans can be made without penalty
provided such prepayment is made in full.

Notes to Financial Statements
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to
discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of
ERISA, except as otherwise agreed to pursuant to collective bargaining. In the event of Plan
termination, Participants will become 100 percent vested in their accounts.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires Plan management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions to and
deductions from net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Valuation of Investments and Income Recognition
Investments are stated at fair market value. Participant loans receivable are valued at cost, which
approximates fair value. The average cost basis is used for determining the cost of investments
sold. Unrealized appreciation and/or depreciation resulting from changes in fair value are
included in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded
on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The DTE Energy Stock Fund recognizes gains or losses on stock distributed to terminated
Participants in settlement of their accounts equal to the difference between the cost and the fair
value of the shares distributed.
Payment of Benefits
Benefits are recorded when paid.
Risks and Uncertainties
The DTE Energy Master Plan Trust (Master Trust) invests in various securities, including government
securities and bonds, corporate debt instruments, stocks, investment partnerships, and derivative
instruments. Investment
securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall
market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is
reasonably possible that
8
Detroit Edison Company Savings & Stock Ownership Plan
For Employees Represented by Local 17 of the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers
Notes to Financial Statements
changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term
and such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.
NOTE 3 FAIR VALUE
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value,
establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It emphasizes that fair value is a market-based
measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Effective January 1, 2008, the Plan adopted SFAS
No. 157.
SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to
transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date
in a principal or most advantageous market. Fair value is a market-based measurement that is
determined based on inputs, which refer broadly to assumptions that market participants use in
pricing assets or liabilities. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or
generally unobservable inputs. The Plan makes certain assumptions it believes that market
participants would use in pricing assets or liabilities, including assumptions about risk, and the
risks inherent in the inputs to valuation techniques. The Plan believes it uses valuation
techniques that maximize the use of observable market-based inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs.
SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value in three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the
highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). In some cases, the
inputs used to measure fair value might fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy. SFAS
No. 157 requires that assets and liabilities be classified in their entirety based on the lowest
level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Assessing the
significance of a particular input may require judgment considering factors specific to the asset
or liability, and may affect the valuation of the asset or liability and its placement within the
fair value hierarchy. SFAS 157 defines fair value based on the following levels:
|
|
|
Level 1 Consists of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the reporting date. |
|
|
|
|
Level 2 Consists of inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are
directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through
corroboration with observable market data. |
|
|
|
|
Level 3 Consists of unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities whose fair value is
estimated based on internally developed models or methodologies using inputs that are
generally less readily observable and supported by little, if any, market activity at the
measurement date. Unobservable inputs are developed based on the best available information
and subject to cost-benefit constraints. |
As of December 31, 2008, $1,703,000 of Loans Due from Participants specific to the Plan are
classified as Level 3 investments in accordance with SFAS 157. See Note 5 for a reconciliation of
Master Trust investments measured at fair value.

NOTE 4 FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS
On May 8, 2003, the Internal Revenue Service issued a favorable determination letter with respect
to the qualified status of the Plan and the conversion of the DTE Energy Stock Fund to an ESOP. The
favorable determination letter indicates that the terms of the Plan and related Trust conform to
the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the IRC. The Company, therefore, has a basis for
deducting contributions to the Plan. The Participants are not taxed currently on Tax Deferred
Contributions and Company Contributions to the Plan or on Plan earnings (including appreciation)
allocated to their accounts. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter.
However, the Plan administrator and the Plans legal counsel believe that the Plan and related
Trust are currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of
the IRC.
The Plan requires distributions under IRC Section 415 for contributions in excess of the annual IRC
Section 415(c) limits. There were no excess contributions in 2008 and 2007.
NOTE 5 THE DTE ENERGY MASTER PLAN TRUST
The Master Trust consists of certain commingled assets of the Plan, the DTE Energy Company Savings
and Stock Ownership Plan, the Detroit Edison Company Savings & Stock Ownership Plan for Employees
Represented by Local 223 of the Utility Workers Union of America, and the MichCon Investment and
Stock Ownership Plan.
The Plans investment in the Master Trust in the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits
represents the Plans allocated portion (approximately 5 percent at both December 31, 2008 and
2007). The Plans allocated portion of the investments is equal to the fair value of the Plans
assets contributed, adjusted by the Plans allocated share of the Master Trust investment income
and expenses, Employee and Company Contributions, and distributions and withdrawals paid to
Participants.

in DTE Energy common stock. DTE Energy common stock dividends accumulated under the ESOP in a
Participants account may be paid out in cash to the Participant (at the Participants election)
within 90 days of the end of the previous Plan year. The DTE Energy Stock Fund also contains
participant-directed investments. The changes in the participant-directed and
nonparticipant-directed portions of the DTE Energy Stock Fund are not separately disclosed.
Significant components of the changes in net assets available for plan benefits in 2008 relating to
the DTE Energy Stock Fund are as follows:
