AGA Gas Rates Course

June 2-5, 2008 Fluno Center, Madison, Wisconsin

This is an annual foundation course, updated each year as technology, regulation, competition and markets evolve. The AGA Gas Rates Course has been hosted by the University of Wisconsin for more than thirty years.

The objective of this program is to develop a more complete understanding of the operations of the gas industry and of utility regulation, particularly as it relates to rate making issues.

Participants should develop a better understanding of the part they play in their organization and gain preparation for positions of greater responsibility.

This is done through instruction from speakers with first-hand experience in:

Finance and Accounting
Regulation
PBR
Cost of Service
Risk and ROE
Decoupling
Supply Fundamentals
LDC & Pipeline Rate Design

Student's newfound knowledge is then reinforced through small group case studies, including presentations on the final day.

Who should attend

The Wisconsin Public Utility Institute at the University of Wisconsin, under the sponsorship of the American Gas Association, offers this program to professional employees of firms in the natural gas industry.
