Decoding the Role of Public Utility Commissions in Energy Regulation
A Public Utility Commission (PUC) or Public Service Commission (PSC) is a state regulatory agency overseeing essential services like electricity, gas, water, and telecommunications, acting as government watchdogs to ensure fair and environmentally compliant provisions. PUCs are vital in regulating utility practices, protecting consumer interests, and advocating for equitable access and pricing. They play a crucial role in guiding utility companies towards cleaner energy sources, ensuring economic stability, and empowering consumers to participate in decision-making processes.
