Tying utility profits to actually doing a good job

In this episode, we’re diving into the wonky but vital topic of
performance-based utility regulation (PBR) with Cara Goldenberg
and Laura Gonzalez. We discuss how traditional utility regulation
creates perverse incentives for utilities — and the tools PBR
offers to better align incentives with modern priorities to like
resilience, equity, and decarbonization. Dozens of states have
adopted some form of PBR or other, and Virginia might be next.
