Connect policy to programs

Translate mandates for equity, decarbonization, and flexibility into actionable utility strategies. We evaluate the full policy and regulatory landscape, analyze planning, compensation, and market integration of DERs, and embed policy considerations into program and evaluation design to ensure compliance and adaptability as technologies and markets evolve.

Policy regulations

Guide regulatory and stakeholder processes

Navigate complex regulatory environments and priorities with confidence. We support strategic filings, regulatory dockets, and engagement with state and regional bodies, using scenario planning and regulatory analysis to mitigate risk and guide utilities in sequencing reforms, coordinating stakeholders, and turning policy into practice.
