Abstract

Mr. Scranton, chairman of the Governor's Energy Council and author of this article, is in an uncommonly advantageous position to assess the status of electric-utility efficiency in his state, particularly as it is impacted by regulation. Based on the findings of an expert-assisted task force, he reports a number of innovative approaches to improving electric-utility efficiency through reforming utility regulations. The suggestions set forth can be applied in any state, and arguably should be, in order to defuse an apparent potential for an electric-energy crisis. 7 references, 1 table.
