The state’s two newest energy regulators took their oath of office today. And for their first official act, Doug Little and Tom Forese helped to elect incumbent Susan Bitter Smith as the Arizona Corporation Commission’s new chairwoman.
Forese and Little, who won their elections in November, are joining the regulatory agency as it grapples with profound changes in the energy landscape that are threatening the traditional utility model and pushes back against a federal government that many believe seeks to wean the nation from coal.
