From rate development to power supply economics, Downes Associates provides a broad spectrum of services through its Power and Financial Management Practice. Complex issues are addressed by experienced professionals.
 The ongoing deregulation of the electric utility industry in the United States is proving to be an extremely complex process fraught with uncertainty. However, there are also numerous opportunities for benefits and growth. Based on many years of participation in the deregulation process, Downes Associates assists numerous wholesale purchasers, associations, governments, and industries on state and federal deregulation issues.
Downes Associates assists managers in the analysis of their electrical load characteristics. Power supply savings can be maximized by actively participating in deregulated power supply markets. Our deregulation specialists have also worked with clients to preserve their existing rights during the development of major state restructuring legislation.
Downes Associates offers cost-of-service analysis for utilities. We are equipped to provide interruptible, controllable, and other rate strategies. Time-of-use metering data is collected in computer ready format for plotting, graphing, and analysis.
Downes can assist utilities as well as end users in crossing the various regulatory hurdles which may arise. From expert testimony at Public Service Commissions to Engineering Certification of financial stability, Downes Associates can help you.
