Article Abstract:
Consumer advocates contend that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's Notice of Proposed Rulemaking undermines the 1992 Energy Policy Act. The latter aims to deregulate the electricity sector by forcing utilities to unbundle their systems and provide access to independent power producers.
