Welcome to Power in the Public Interest!
Electricity is an essential service for every person, business, and community. Power in the Public Interest promotes electricity policies that will provide consumers with reliable and affordable electricity service over the long term.
Over the last several years, state and federal experiments in electricity "deregulation" and "restructuring" have proved disappointing. Prices for electricity have risen, and investments in needed transmission and generation have faltered. In general, consumers in more traditionally regulated areas have fared better.
Now, many states (and their consumers) regret these experiments but are not sure what to do next. At the same time, consumers in traditionally regulated areas, who generally have fared better, want to avoid collateral harm from practices or modifications in the restructured regions. Power in the Public Interest hopes to help state and federal policymakers evaluate their options and make the choices that work best for consumers.
