Daily edition | Nov. 21, 2018 Note from the editor
Utility Dive will take a break Thursday and Friday for Thanksgiving. Our weekend edition will show up as usual and we will be back in your inboxes Monday with all the latest utility news.
Until then, the holidays are a great time to catch up on reading. Utility Dive recently obtained a video of President Trump's FERC nominee sharply criticizing renewable energy. Meanwhile, PG&E's role in the California wildfires remains under investigation. We will continue coverage on the FERC nominee and California utilities as the stories progress.
Happy holidays and thank you for reading!
