Scott Borden Grover

Scott Grover’s practice and experience includes counseling clients on electric service and regulatory compliance matters concerning the electricity retail and wholesale markets, the natural gas wholesale markets, and representing clients’ interests in federal and state regulatory litigation. His primary area of expertise encompasses retail electric service provided by vertically integrated public utilities in the bilateral markets, but Scott’s representative experience also extends to electric cooperatives and other participants in organized markets. He advises his clients on electric service contracts, retail tariff design and implementation, and energy services strategies.  In recent years, Scott has served as lead counsel in the establishment and defense of innovative and balanced tariffs applying the requirements of PURPA while protecting the interests of retail electric customers. Scott also represents electric utility interests before the FERC and the federal district and appellate courts (particularly the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals), where he routinely serves as lead counsel for clients in interstate pipeline rate cases and other litigated proceedings under Section 4 of the Natural Gas Act, as well as rate filings and investigations under the Federal Power Act.  Scott also counsels his clients on compliance with a number of FERC’s regulatory schemes, including those governing affiliate dealings, the standards of conduct, PURPA, and pipeline and shipper obligations under the Natural Gas Act.
