Electric Energy Market Competition
Task Force; Notice Requesting
Comments on Wholesale and Retail
Electricity Competition
October 13, 2005.
Overview
Section 1815 of the Energy Policy Act
of 2005 requires the Electric Energy
Market Competition Task Force to
conduct a study of competition in
wholesale and retail markets for electric
energy in the United States. Over the
past several years, wholesale
competition has developed unevenly in
many regions of the country. Moreover,
fewer than 20 States have adopted retail
choice programs that allow some
electricity consumers to choose their
retail electric generation supplier. The
purpose of this study is to analyze and
report to Congress on the critical
elements for effective wholesale and
retail competition, the status of each
element, impediments to realizing each
element, and suggestions for
overcoming these impediments.
In recent years, some states and the
Federal government have taken steps to
encourage competition in the electric
power industry. In the Energy Policy
Act of 2005, Congress established an
inter-agency task force, known as the
‘‘Electric Energy Market Competition
Task Force’’ (the Task Force), to conduct
a study and analysis of competition
within the wholesale markets and retail
markets for electric energy in the United
States. The Task Force consists of 5
members:

(1) 1 employee of the Department of
Justice, appointed by the Attorney
General of the United States—J. Bruce
McDonald, Deputy Assistant Attorney
General, Antitrust Division; (202) 514–
1157, bruce.mcdonald@usdoj.gov.
(2) 1 employee of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, appointed by
the Chairperson of that Commission—

Counsel, Office of the General CounselMarkets, Tariffs, and Rates; (202) 502–

(3) 1 employee of the Federal Trade
Commission, appointed by the
Chairperson of that Commission—
Michael Wroblewski, Assistant General
Counsel for Policy Studies; (202) 326–
2166, mwroblewski@ftc.gov.
(4) 1 employee of the Department of
Energy, appointed by the Secretary of
Energy—David Meyer, Deputy Director,
Division of Permitting, Siting, and
Analysis, Office of Electricity Delivery
and Energy Reliability; (202) 586–1411,

(5) 1 employee of the Rural Utilities
Service, appointed by the Secretary of
Agriculture—Karen Larsen, Office of
Assistant Administrator, Electric
Programs (202) 720–9545,
Karen.Larsen@usda.gov.
Section 1815(c) of the Energy Policy
Act of 2005 requires the Task Force to
‘‘consult with and solicit comments
from any advisory entity of the task
force, the States, representatives of the
electric power industry, and the
public.’’ This Notice begins this process.
The Task Force also will publish a draft
final report for public comment, before
submitting the final version to Congress
as required by Section 1815(b)(2)(B).
Listed below is a series of questions
for which the Task Force seeks public
comment. For both wholesale and retail
competition for electric power, we focus
on the current state of competition and
on factors that help support
competition, or that otherwise may limit
competition, among suppliers and
buyers in regional wholesale markets
and retail markets at the state level. The
questions listed below are by no means
exhaustive. The Task Force encourages
commentors to raise any other
additional factors that affect
competition in wholesale and retail
electric power markets. It is not
necessary to respond to each question.
Rather, it would be helpful for
