This article series is sponsored by Consumers Energy and went through our normal editorial review process.
Each winter in Michigan, the question we all ask ourselves is: How cold will it get this year?
For most, the question is simple enough – check the Farmer’s Almanac, tune into the weather forecast, ask a few friends or co-workers what they’ve heard. And, if "colder" is the reply, we may decide to don that fluffy wool sweater, turn up the thermostat, make a pot of soup, or throw a log on the fireplace at home.
Temperatures plunged across the Midwest this week, and if the bitter cold isn't bad enough, energy costs are rising. Bigger bills are expected to show up in January and already, 90,000 Consumer Energy customers are behind on their heating bill payments.
So Newschannel 3's Rachel Glaser went searching for ways to rein in those heating bills.
Consumers Energy has been named a “Business Customer Champion” in an independent national survey of energy providers.
Market Strategies International recognized Consumers Energy as one of 18 energy providers in its Utility Trusted Brand & Customer Engagement™: Business, a Cogent Reports™ study.

Winter has officially hit West Michigan and the freezing temperatures have arrived. For many families the cost of keeping the heat on hits close to home.
