Regulatory and public policy
Prudence
Electric utility prudence determinations used to be confined to generating assets. No more.
Restructuring, increased market volatility, and greater regulatory uncertainty have expanded the scope of these determinations to include power-purchase contracts, risk management and hedging strategies, and transmission and distribution system reliability.
Bates White develops asset valuation and risk models to address the prudence of generation, transmission, and distribution assets, as well as contracts.
Our experts have been recognized by key industry organizations, such as the Electric Power Research Institute, for their contributions to the development of sophisticated and defensible economic models that assess truly “least-cost” investment strategies.
