Ari Peskoe, the Director of the Electricity Law Initiative at Harvard Law School, joins Staff Attorney Hannah Dobie to dive into his latest insights on power sector governance. They dissect how the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) influences regional decision-making, often compromising the independence of Regional Transmission Organizations (RTOs). The discussion also touches on the urgent need for reform to boost transparency and representation in RTOs, unlocking the industry's innovative potential and addressing long-standing monopolistic control issues.
