Rate Design

Rates governed by regulatory rules present specific challenges in program design and management. Our consultants are demonstrated leaders in their disciplines, having led electric, water, wastewater and solid waste utilities through public and regulatory processes. We help you establish meaningful outreach initiatives when needed to gain support from key stakeholders.

We have worked across numerous regions to analyze and plan rate design studies that align with strategic needs, technical requirements and business strategies. Our sophisticated modeling systems help you buy utilities, decommission assets or modernize equipment. Because we work in every aspect of the industry, we bring a legacy knowledge base and a deep understanding of emerging trends.
