- eds.
In the past few years, utilities and their regulators have come to realize that the current regulatory system financially rewards utilities that sell more electricity and penalizes utilities that sell less. Thus, utilities are discouraged from pursuing energy-efficiency initiatives. To address this problem, a variety of reforms have been proposed and implemented to make the ``least-cost plan`` for meeting future electricity needs the ``most-profit plan`` for the utility. This book brings together contributions by over 20 nationally recognized experts who are shaping regulatory incentives across the country. Seven chapters analyze leading incentives mechanisms; six additional chapters discuss rationales for regulatory incentives, how incentives evolved; linkages to program evaluation, impacts of incentives on utilities, and the future direction of incentives. Co-published with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority.
