Abstract
A description is given of a wave of proposals from the US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), which are expected to add momentum to the ongoing deregulation of the electric utility industry. The regulations are intended to address some of the difficulties posed by the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act (PURPA). The developments in the electric utilities industry since PURPA, the anticipated impacts of the new regulations, and the industry´s reactions are examined.<>
