Regulatory and public policy

Bates White experts address all facets of the energy industry affecting our clients’ business decisions. From the design of new market-based mechanisms to the “nuts and bolts” aspects of rate cases, our experts leverage extensive economic, financial, and litigation experience to address complex regulatory issues, estimate the value of capital assets (and identify key factors affecting those values), and develop investment strategies in the face of ongoing market and regulatory uncertainties. Our experts have testified on almost every aspect of regulated rate cases, including the cost of capital, cost of service and rate design, depreciation, and prudence. We also provide comprehensive training seminars on regulatory economics and methodologies for regulators, attorneys, and industry professionals.
