HData
Pioneering new approaches to energy regulation. A community of energy regulatory data professionals interested in solutions for producing and consuming financial and operational data.
With the macro landscape changing rapidly, transformation of electric utility operating models and capital allocation strategies will be required in order to address pressures on cash flow, balance sheets, returns and equity valuations while delivering on reliability, affordability and energy transition commitments.
"Transform to Transition," a paper authored by A&M Energy experts, details four key moves to address near-term challenges while re-positioning for the future.
- Accelerate the transition to a structurally lower-OpEx business model
- Source and allocate capital fund increasing infrastructure investments
- Grow billing determinants
- Re-set the strategic growth narrative

Neil Chatterjee is a former Commissioner and Chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), and has deep ties in Washington and across the industry, with extensive experience across the energy landscape both domestically and internationally.
While at FERC, Neil championed several strategic initiatives, including streamlining and improving FERC’s liquified natural gas application review and approval process, bolstering power grid reliability and resilience, and boosting renewable resources’ ability to compete in regional power markets and for the reduction of carbon emissions.
Led the independent, bipartisan Commission with a multidisciplinary workforce in locations across the US. Agency was twice named the Best Place to Work in the Federal Government while serving as Chairman.
Established a clear regulatory philosophy that drove policy achievements: Actions should be forward-thinking and competition-focused in order to create an ecosystem for smart energy-sector investments and innovation.
FERC would be a catalyst – an enabler of competitive and transparent markets that would support needed investments.
Established and implemented a multi-pronged plan to modernize the agency: Modernized IT infrastructure and overhauled public-facing technology platforms.
Developed a world-class, multi-layered security and intelligence program. Enhanced interaction with stakeholders to reach new audiences and amplify public engagement.
How does digital transformation impact the future of energy regulation? And the impact of energy policy?
