Urged FERC to reject NextEra Energy's acquisition of Dominion Energy over antitrust and affordability concerns.
“Corporate consolidation is sweeping the energy sector, concentrating unprecedented market power in a shrinking number of companies and threatening to drive already-high electricity costs even higher.
