Note from the editor Dear readers, This week, Utility Dive will be at the summer meetings of the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC), a conference of state utility commissioners taking place in Nashville, Tennessee. Regulators are expected to discuss a new NARUC draft manual on rate design, the future of nuclear power and issues of state and federal jurisdiction, among other topics. For updates on conference proceedings, please follow me on Twitter @GavinBade and check your morning newsletter for dispatches from Nashville. If you have any story tips or ideas—or just want to say hello at the conference—you can reach me on Twitter or through the email link provided below. We’ll be back all week with updates from NARUC and other important stories from around the country. Stay tuned! Gavin Bade Editor, Utility Dive Twitter | E-mail |
