Utilities Regulation

Utilities regulation involves overseeing essential services like electricity, water, and natural gas to ensure they are reliable, affordable, and safe. Regulators set fair rates so companies can cover costs and invest in infrastructure, while protecting consumers from unfair charges. They also ensure companies maintain quality standards and environmental responsibility. The goal is to balance the interests of consumers, service providers, and the public, promoting efficient and equitable access to vital utilities.
