Large utilities are obligated to charge just and reasonable rates and allow access to new transmission facilities
Many small utilities don’t have the in-house expertise needed to determine whether the rate they pay is consistent with their use, navigate RTO/ISO market policies, engage with power market disputes, or ensure compliance with FERC and NERC requirements. To provide effective legal counsel to these clients, attorneys need compelling insights and advising from energy industry experts.
GDS consultants perform in-depth analysis and provide critical testimony to address the challenges faced by utilities.
Attorneys regularly rely on our engineering and regulatory expertise to attain advantageous outcomes before regulatory commissions and courts. There’s no reason to begin legal proceedings without the most comprehensive, effective regulatory and engineering analyses to substantiate your arguments.
The GDS team helps attorneys and their energy clients to advance robust and defensible and achieve regulatory success. These efforts allow utilities to punch above their weight.
