Regulatory advocacy hit in NARUC probe of EEI funds

The Edison Electric Institute (EEI) now estimates that it spends 20% of its expenses on legislative and 15% on regulatory lobbying. The National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners had challenged EEI's earlier estimate of 14% spent on lobbying. This means that 35% of EEI expenses must be borne by shareholders, and cannot be charged to Ratepayers. EEI argues that regulatory advocacy should not be disallowed because these activities differ from lobbying, but NARUC officials disagree.
