Career

Ted focuses his practice on federal energy regulation, particularly FERC regulation of electricity and natural gas transmission, markets, and transactions. He also counsels on FERC and NERC reliability issues, advising clients making acquisitions or investments that implicate the Federal Power Act, the Natural Gas Act, the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978, and the Public Utility Holding Company Act (“PUHCA”) of 2005, and issues related to the market and reliability impact of the ongoing transition to clean energy resources in the power sector. 

Most recently, Ted has concentrated on representing Independent System Operators in their dealings with FERC and NERC, and on providing regulatory support to the firm’s transactional lawyers in connection with various energy sector deals.
