Natural gas `96: A round robin of residential unbundling

Journal Article · · Fortnightly
OSTI ID:525919
Whether your`re a utility commissioner in Wyoming or Georgia, a v.p. for a leading marketer, or a commission division director in New Jersey, you share a common activity: learning by the seat of your pants about deregulating gas markets. In this gas forum, Public Utilities Fortnightly highlights developments across the nation. UtiliCorp United, Inc., a leader in noncore gas markets, plans to step into the residential market for the first time, and appears to have Maryland and Massachusetts in its sights. Wyoming, meanwhile, is already considering changes to its recently launched residential natural gas pilot. In New Jersey, taxes, among other issues, raised their head during noncore unbundling. Georgia is taking another route. A failed attempt at a legislative solution to gas deregulation now pins hopes on consensus between utilities, marketers, industrials, and others. Hopefully, at least for those who plan to enter the residential market, Georgia will avoid the learning curve of Wyoming and New Jersey.
