The Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning And Conservation Act-Solution For A Regional Dilemma, Henry M. Jackson Jan 1980

The Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning And Conservation Act-Solution For A Regional Dilemma, Henry M. Jackson

Seattle University Law Review

For the past four decades, the Bonneville Power Administration(BPA) has played a singular and powerful role in developing the Northwest regional electric power system, and indirectly in the regional economy that system supports. The federal government's decision during the first half of this century to develop multi-purpose water resource projects led to the construction of many dams, most of them in the Western United States, most built since the mid-1930s, and most including hydroelectric generation.

Seattle University Law Review

Supporters of the proposed Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act have not produced satisfactory answers to two fundamental questions.

A Report On Utility Participation In Solar Energy Development, James P. Lough

Duquesne Law Review

The promise of solar energy use in remedying the critical need for energy sources which provide alternatives to oil is the concern of this article. The author examines the role that utility companies could perform in the development and marketing of solar energy systems and considers the potential for anticompetitive abuse that might result. He concludes, however, that congressional plans for solar development have placed unfair, unwarranted, and counterproductive restrictions on utilities and may have precluded otherwise promising development.

Restrictions On Electric Utility Advertising, Michigan Law Review Jan 1980

Restrictions On Electric Utility Advertising, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

This Note reconsiders the constitutionality of New York's restriction on advertising by electric utilities. Section I explains how and why the Supreme Court's current analysis of the first amendment distinguishes commercial speech from other forms of speech. Section II looks at what protection is due commercial speech and weighs the competing interests in the specific context of utility advertising. The Note concludes that states may restrict utility advertising to encourage energy conservation.
