Abstract

For several years beginning in the early ‘90s, states attempted to bring competition and the resulting lower cost to the provision of electric power within the states through restructuring. This paper attempts to model the behavior of legislatures in reaction to the decisions of regulators as well as their own institutional incentives using a panel dataset of the 48 states across the 8 years in which restructuring was occurring.
