Expert Witness & Litigation Support

We have testified in numerous federal and state regulatory proceedings, arbitrations, and court proceedings on retail and wholesale electricity market design, market power, and retail energy rates. We have provided litigation analysis and support in over thirty proceedings. 

Wholesale & Retail Electricity Market Analysis & Planning

We have led electricity wholesale and retail market analyses in North America and the Middle East. We have developed and used multiple models of the power sector in generation capacity expansion planning, state energy planning, wholesale and retail price forecasting, and reliability analyses. We have published widely in academic and industry publications on these topics.  Recent and ongoing projects include advising State Ratepayer Advocates on distributed energy resources in the context of FERC Order No. 2222 and energy planning as well as assessing the emission reduction benefits of a food waste to electricity facility.
