Energy Strategies.... it's not just our name it's our work product
Since Energy deregulation was mandated, we have seen a migration
from private investor owned utilities to publicly owned utilities.
Economics and community responsiveness are the primary forces
driving this migration. Local governments are seeking control
of their local utility as a means to mitigate the impact of energy
market volatility, and in this way help to protect the economic
health of their communities. AES has assisted a number of clients
in performing the economic and legal feasibility studies to determine
the viability of this transition. Additionally, AES brings its
experience with the wholesale energy markets, and utility operations
to assist clients in developing and operating their own utility.
Some
