Florida PSC: Commissioner Gabriella Passidomo
State Commissions
“We have always been leaders in the utilities space when it comes to a focus on resilience. That comes from our experiences with severe weather events.”
Florida PSC: Commissioner Mike LaRosa
State Commissions
“We are very independent, maybe more independent than we get credit for. I don’t think we’re political at all. We all bring different expertise and have a similar mindset of serving the State.”
Florida PSC: Commissioner Gary Clark
State Commissions
“The new expectation is we’re not going to have an outage that lasts longer than 24 hours. That is the challenge and we’re blending that with new customer expectations when it comes to renewable energy.”
Florida PSC: Commissioner Art Graham
State Commissions
“My number one issue has always been customer service, and it doesn’t matter if it’s gas, electric, water, or wastewater. You give a utility monopoly, so customers have no choice, and they need to be protected.”
Florida PSC: Chair Andrew Fay
State Commissions
“I am a big advocate for electric vehicles. Florida is second in the country in electric vehicle adoption, which is something I am proud of.”

Inflation Frustration
The Consumer Price Index continued to deliver distressing news. March’s CPI was up 8.5 percent year-over-year. The CPI’s component for electric service was up more, 11.1 percent. And the component for natural gas service was up even more, 21.6 percent.
The cause — whether for electric or gas service — is once again the natural gas commodity markets. You could see that clearly in last week’s Producer Price Index.
